Abstract

AbstractBased on the conservation laws of mass, momentum and energy, the droplet size and velocity distributions in liquid sprays are formulated through the maximum entropy principle, without taking into account the details of liquid atomization processes such as the characteristics of disturbances and behavior of liquid bulk preceding the droplet formation. The joint probability distribution function in size and velocity of the droplets can be predicted from the atomization conditions which are represented by the Weber number and the source terms in the formulation. The model prediction agrees well with the experimental data measured by a phase Doppler particle analyzer.
