MITE Oct 99 Modeling of Internally Mixed Injector A. Kushari Dr. Y. Neumeier Dr. B. T. Zinn 11/02/99
MITE Oct 99 Objectives • Theoretically predict flow and spray properties for specified operating conditions • Develop a design tool
MITE Oct 99 Governing Equations • Continuity of air • Continuity of liquid • Combined air-liquid momentum • Combined air-liquid energy • Energy of liquid • Perfect gas equation of state for air
MITE Oct 99 Boundary Conditions • Pressure equals back pressure at the exit or • Air attains sonic velocity at the exit
MITE Oct 99 Solution Domain
MITE Oct 99 Assumptions • No wall friction • Liquid flow isothermal and incompressible • One dimensional, steady flows • Air flow uniform • Air behaves as perfect gas • Liquid breakup is according to a normalized distribution of Weber number • Limited coalescence of droplets possible
MITE Oct 99 Uniform Model
MITE Oct 99 Uniform Model (cont.)
MITE Oct 99 Results from Uniform Model
MITE Oct 99 Comparison • Continuity of liquid • Momentum of Air+Liquid • Energy of Air+Liquid • Energy of Liquid
MITE Oct 99 Solution Procedure • Velocity bins 2000 (0-200 m/s), Droplet bins 80 (0-800 mm) • Initial Conditions • from uniform model @ X = L one bin(I,J) • Solve for Vdv @ X=X+dx • pressure is the independent variable because pressure should be uniform • Break into droplets and redistribute into bins

MITE Oct 99 Effect of Coal
MITE Oct 99 Conclusions • Less coalescence creates smaller drops • Good prediction of flow rate • boundary condition matched very close to the exit • Captured the trend of droplet formation
MITE Oct 99 Future Works • Independent breakout and binary “coal” • Use the model to predict flow and spray characteristics • Start with uniform model to obtain flow rate and initial conditions • Correct the flow rate using distributed model • Dependence of injector predicted performance upon statistical parameters
