Abstract
The present study was conducted in order to clarify the effects of airflow turbulence on the spray combustion. Methanol was atomized with the two-fluid-type nozzle in order to generate the spray flame, and the turbulence characteristic of the flame was varied by inserting a mesh near the tip of the nozzle. Droplets in the spray flame were measured using a PDPA system in a reaction field, and changes in the turbulence characteristic were measured using a hot-wire anemometer in a no-reaction field in order to clarify the effects of turbulence on combustion behavior. Inserting a finer mesh promoted droplet evaporation and enhanced the dispersion characteristic. Regarding changes in the turbulence characteristic, the integral time scale increased and the energy spectrum decreased as the inserted mesh became finer
