Abstract
The flow structure in a high-speed gas jet released from the nozzle of a promising liquid-fuel spray-type burner is studied experimentally and theoretically. The velocity distribution in a single-phase gas flow is measured by means of particle image velocimetry (PIV) at various operating parameters. Using the one-dimensional isentropic flow approximation, the gas-dynamic parameters are estimated for the characteristic operating regimes of the burner with supply of superheated water steam, as well as with air supply. With the use of the ANSYS Fluent CFD package, two-dimensional numerical simulation of aerodynamic structure of air stream from the nozzle is carried out. The results are compared with the measured velocity field and the flow pattern, typical of a supersonic underexpanded jet, visualized by the direct shadow photography method near the nozzle orifice.
