Abstract
In this study, the thermal radiation attenuation performance of water mist was investigated using twin-fluid atomizers. The water and air flow rates of Small atomizer were 36~105 g/min and 10~30 L/min, whereas those of Large atomizer were 37~300 g/min and 20~60 L/min, respectively. In the present experimental range, the thermal radiation attenuation of Small atomizer and Large atomizer were 6.1~11.9% and 5.2~14.6%, respectively. With the increase in water and air flow rates, the thermal radiation attenuation increased, and under similar water and air flow rate conditions, Small atomizer showed higher thermal radiation attenuation than Large atomizer. Based on the present experimental data, it was found that the air (gas) discharge area is a potentially important factor in determining the thermal radiation attenuation performance. Additionally, through the analysis of thermal radiation attenuation per unit water flow rate, it was confirmed that the twin-fluid atomizer can result in higher thermal radiation attenuation than the single-fluid atomizer under the same water flow rate condition.
