Abstract

A 3D computational model is presented for the simulation of fluid flow and spray in a splash-plate atomizer. The model combines the solution of continuity and momentum equations with an algorithm for free surface tracking in presence of an arbitrary nozzle shape. The model simulates the flow through the nozzle and predicts the formation of a liquid film and spray droplet size at the nozzle exit. Close agreement between numerical results and measurements for film thickness and velocity distributions validates the model and its underlying assumptions. The effect of viscosity on liquid film thickness and velocity is also investigated; for a liquid with a higher viscosity, the liquid film is thicker and its velocity is smaller.
