Abstract
En 中文
This paper presents a novel segment-based Eulerian-Lagrangian transition method for predicting the primary and secondary breakup behavior of a flat nozzle spray. It combines the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method for simulating liquid sheet disintegration and primary breakup with the Discrete Phase Model (DPM) method for secondary breakup. The VOF simulation predicts the varying thickness and local velocity characteristics of the liquid sheet from the center region to the edge region near the nozzle exit. Meanwhile, the proposed segment-based linear stability analysis in this study is capable of predicting the initial droplet variation resulting from primary breakup, considering the varying behavior of the liquid sheet from different regions. The simulation results match reasonably well with experimental data at both macroscopic and microscopic levels, effectively predicting the overall spray structure, mass flow rate, and droplet size variations across different regions with good accuracy. Both experimental and numerical data show that the Sauter mean diameter (SMD) values differ between the center and edge regions, with the edge region displaying larger droplets than the center region. This indicates that the segment-based approach is crucial for successfully predicting the spatial distributions of droplet size characteristics.
