Popis: The characteristic of the spray within combustion chamber is one of the determining factors that affect the performance and exhaust gas emissions of an aero-engine. Recently, the holography technique has been successfully applied to spray atomization measurement due to its significant advances. In this article, an atmospheric test rig of pressure-swirl nozzle is built. The kerosene spray generated at the atmospheric condition and in an aero-engine combustor is measured. The Sauter mean diameter of the spray droplets is obtained. In addition, the theoretical analysis of film formation and sheet breakup processes are conducted. Comparison of theoretical analysis and experimental results on the spray atomization of a pressure-swirl nozzle is presented.
