Book A Numerical Study of Droplet Vortex Interactions in an Evaporating Spray

Download or read book A Numerical Study of Droplet Vortex Interactions in an Evaporating Spray written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we present the time-dependent axisymmetric numerical simulation of an unsteady n-heptane evaporating spray, and investigate the droplet-vortex interactions which determine the structural and dynamic characteristics of a spray jet flow. The spray is formed between a droplet-laden heated nitrogen jet and a coflowing air stream. A detailed, multidimensional, two-phase algorithm is developed for the simulation. A comprehensive vaporization model is employed to calculate the instantaneous droplet size and surface temperature along the trajectory of each droplet group. Monodisperse spray in introduced into the large vortex structures that are generated due to the presence of buoyancy-induced hydrodynamic instability of the heated jet. Results focused on the two-way interactions between vortical structures and droplets, and the dynamics of both non-evaporating and evaporating sprays. The vortex structures cause droplets to disperse radially outward, and this in turn determines the fuel vapor distribution and also modifies the vortex dynamics. Thus, the dynamics and structural characteristics of the evaporating spray are strongly influenced by the two-way transient interactions. The effects of initial droplet size, injection location, and liquid-to-gas mass loading ratio on these interactions are also investigated.

Book Numerical Study of Droplet Evaporation

Download or read book Numerical Study of Droplet Evaporation written by Ritul Gandhi and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Droplet evaporation plays a vital role in various engineering fields such as air/fuel premixing, inkjet printing and many more. The high rate of power dissipation from the integrated circuits and chips of electronic devices creates a need for cooling it to achieve their optimal functionality. The high rate of cooling can be achieved by thin film evaporation of water by phase change as compared to the air cooling methods. Therefore, the study of droplet evaporation is necessary to understand the underlying physics and effects of different parameters on cooling performance. Numerical study of droplet evaporation has been done by using the level set and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian moving mesh method in COMSOL. These methods are used to track the shrinking liquid-gas interface because of phase change. The changes in the surface tension due to temperature gradient caused by the phase change induces Marangoni convection which influences evaporation. Investigation of the transient droplet evaporation is done wherein the radius of the droplet is pinned and the effect of Marangoni convection on the average droplet temperature is studied for the pure diffusion case. The model developed in this study can easily be extended to study contact line dynamics during droplet evaporation.
