Abstract: An experimental multi-droplet stream creating system was developed for the hydrocarbon fuel based on the ultrasonic atomization and the carrier-gas transport techniques. The speed and global equivalence ratio of the stream could be controlled independently to simulate really the flow and mixing conditions of the droplets at the spray fringes. The stream scattering light was photographed by a high-speed camera at 90? angle using a high intensity LED light source under different air flow rates(10,20,30 and 40 L/min) and different n-heptane supply rates(150,200,250 and 300 mL/h). The pictures showed that there was a stable flow near the nozzle exit and its length increases firstly and then decreases with air flow increasing because of the combined effect of air entrainment and droplet vaporization. When the stream speed at nozzle exit was lower than 5.2 m/s, appeared the obvious air entrainment eddies after the stable sector, and the lower the speed, the more eddy number and the more regular the eddy form. When the stream was far away from the nozzle exit, the multi-droplet stream might not be shot by its scattering at 90癮ngle because of the droplet diffusion and vaporization.

Key words: power machinery and engineering, ultrasonic atomization, multi-droplet stream, n-heptane, scattering
