Computational and experimental study of the two-phase mixing in gas-dynamic ignition system

The work is devoted to the determination of main peculiarities of the two-phase mixture formation in the flow duct of the gas-dynamic ignition system. The paper presents a mathematical model and the results of a numerical and experimental investigation of the peculiarities of the unsteady gas flow as well as the processes of the fragmentation and evaporation of droplets in the resonance cavity of the gas-dynamic ignition system. Different configurations of injectors for liquid supply are considered, and the influence of the most significant factors on heat release and concentration of the evaporated liquid in the resonance cavity is investigated. The obtained data may be used for choosing the injectors and the regimes of the liquid fuel supply, which enable one to ensure the stable conditions for igniting two-phase fuel mixtures in the gas-dynamic ignition system.
