Abstract:

In order to further understand the mechanism of breakup of diesel jet, a mathematical model of fuel flow in self-excited oscillating nozzle was built based on large eddy simulation(LES) and Volume of Fluid (VOF) model. The results show that fluid vorticity and disturbance intensity in the self-excited oscillating nozzle is significantly increased, and it can increased by more than three times. The disturbance intensity is more sensitive to jet breakup in the near-nozzle region, which can significantly improve the jet breakup effect. The jet breakup length(SL) is greatly reduced, which can varies from 2 to 5 times of the outlet diameter at near-nozzle region. At the same time, the spray cone angle in the near-nozzle area is also increased, which can increase by more than 60%. The fuel jet atomization effect is greatly improved in the self-excited oscillating nozzle. The numerical simulation results is also provided a strong theoretical basis for the self-oscillating pulsed atomizing nozzle.

Key words: energy and power engineering, self-excited oscillating nozzle, atomization characteristic, breakup mechanism of jet, turbulence perturbation
