Analysis of Atomization Cooling Characteristics of External Mixing Nozzles by ZHANG Qian, LIU Ziyang, XU Yuhan, HUANG Lei, WANG Dagui, CHEN Liai, CHEN Song

“…Therefore, the research aims to deeply explore the discrete characteristics and concentration distribution mechanism of high-pressure spraying atomization, providing theoretical support and practical guidance for optimizing the spraying process.MethodsThe external mixing nozzle is composed of a gas-phase outer shell and a liquid-phase inner core. The gas-phase passage and the liquid-phase passage are separated, allowing for the adjustment of their respective flow and pressure. …”
