Three-Component Laser-Doppler Measurements of the Confined Model Flow Behind a Swirl Nozzle

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Results are reported of three-component laser-Doppler measurements in the highly complex flow field behind a model nozzle as used for the atomization of liquid fuel in gas turbines. The flow field consists of two concentric air streams leaving a concentric dual nozzle system both with slightly different but equally directed swirls. The outer ring flow forms a 1 mm thick ring film which interacts strongly with the inner flow and the surrounding flow field.

Mean and rms velocities were measured as well as double and triple cross-correlations of the three velocity components. Frequency analysis exhibited a strong coherent fluctuation of the radial velocity component near the nozzle exit. The measured data are needed to improve atomization and combustion effectiveness and for numerical modelling of the flow.
