This study focuses on the low-pressure spraying of viscous liquids (μ= 60, 147 and 308 mPa
s) using four types of internal-mixing twin-fluid atomizers. We compare two well-known …

Despite its wide industrial applications, the internal-mixing twin-fluid atomization suffers a
major problem of spray unsteadiness. This work links the flow characteristics inside a newly …

Clean and efficient combustion of liquid fuels depends on spray fineness that aids fast fuel
vaporization and better fuel–air mixing. Swirl-burst (SB) atomizers generate fine droplets at …

Effervescent atomization performance depends on the bubble size inside the mixing
chamber, consequently influencing the spray dust control performance. This paper proposes …

Fluid coking is a thermal conversion process that uses a conventional two-vessel circulating
fluidized bed to convert heavy hydrocarbon feeds to lighter products. The technology was …

In this work, we extend our previous research on swirl nozzles by introducing bubbles at the
nozzle inlet. A large-scale hollow cone pressure-swirl atomizer is studied using scale …

Twin-fluid atomizers, valued for handling viscous fluids and high operating loads, are
extensively used in combustion processes and oil refineries. In the latter scenario, internal …

The internal flow in an effervescent atomizer was experimentally observed for a wide range
of gas–liquid flow rates with various atomizer geometries. The effects of atomizer geometry …

The study on the spray morphology of effervescent atomization based on the internal gas–
liquid flow patterns were conducted by the combination of experiment and numerical …

Effervescent atomizers have a number of significant advantages over conventional injectors.
They can operate at much lower injection pressures, their atomization performance is largely …
