Synopsis

The structures of aerated-liquid jets injected into a supersonic crossflow have been studied experimentally. Aerated-liquid injectors with diameters of 0.020", 0.040" and 0.060" were flush mounted on the bottom plate of a supersonic wind tunnel to provide normal and angled injection. Freestream Mach number and temperature were held constant at 1.94 and 500 -F, respectively. Water at room temperature was used as the liquid injectant and nitrogen gas used as the aerating gas. Wide ranges of test conditions for injection angle , injector orifice diameter (d0), jet-to-air momentum flux ratios (q0), and gas-to-liquid ratios (GLR), were studied. Injection angles were varied from 45- downstream to 90- (normal to freestream). Jet-to-air momentum flux was varied from 1% to 15% of the freestream and gas-to-liquid ratios from 0% (pure-liquid injection) to 10%. Shadowgraph and laser sheet illumination techniques were used for spray visualization while a phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) was utilized to quantitatively measure droplet and spray plume properties. The data from all three methods were used to develop correlations for the droplet and spray plume properties for aerated-liquid jets using a linear fit of the base-10 logarithm coefficients.
