The spraying process simulation of the low-volume sprayer working body
Annotatsiya
The article presents the developed mathematical models that describe the process of spraying the working body of a low-volume sprayer. Theoretical studies show that with an increase in the supply of working fluid to the atomizing disc, the rotational speed of the pneumatic disc atomizer decreases, and in order to ensure the effect of the air flow on the droplet formation process, the radius of the disc should be larger than the radius of the base of the cone-shaped fairing, but less than its maximum critical value and for obtaining a monodisperse spray with the main droplet diameter d = 80 … 120 μm, at an axial air flow velocity of the fan installation U = 40 … 60 m/s, the parameters of the disk the sprayer and the propeller are linked together when the following values: disk radius r = 65 … 85 mm, the number of radial channels on the disk nр = 2 … 6 pcs, the width of the radial channel bр = 3 … 4 mm, and to obtain a high-quality air-droplet flow, the initial velocity of the main drops discharged from the periphery of the spraying disc must be less than the speed of the air flow and, at the same time, the rotational speed of the pneumatic disc sprayer is recommended to be used in the range of ω = 60… 200 s-1.
