Characterization of the Spray for Twin-Fluid Atomizer for Inert Gas Generator
Sikka, Raghav (Doctoral dissertations at the University of South-Eastern Norway;145, Doctoral thesis, 2022-12-12)In this era, the world is still hinged upon fossil fuels for energy production & power generation. However, stringent regulations are imposed upon industries by regulatory bodies. The highly efficient combustor systems are ... -
Experimental study of primary atomization characteristics of sonic air-assist atomizers
Sikka, Raghav; Vågsæther, Knut; Bjerketvedt, Dag; Lundberg, Joachim (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The present study compares two twin-fluid atomizer concepts based on the airflow (shock waves) pattern obtained through shadowgraph imaging for atomization of water with a low air/water pressure supply. The research work ... -
Spray drop size characterization in an external-mixing bluff-body atomizer based on acoustics and Multivariate Analysis
Sikka, Raghav; Halstensen, Maths; Lundberg, Joachim (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Air-assist atomizers have been widely used in various applications such as the aerospace industry, internal combustion engines, molten metal, food processing, etc. The mean drop size for these atomizers was obtained through ...
