Description

In this project the drop impact on walls at high wall temperatures and high ambient pressures is investigated. These conditions can be found in technical applications like in internal combustion of engines or gas turbines, where the single drop impact is an important part of the spray / wall interaction. In describing and modeling of spray impacts under these extreme conditions understanding of the drop impact is a necessary knowledge.

The ambient pressure has a significant impact on the rate of evaporation and the saturation temperature of an impacting drop. It can affect the Leidenfrost temperature as well as the acceleration of the drop perpendicular to the wall and thus the parameters of secondary break-up processs. Currently no systematic or comprehensive description of the influence of pressure on the drop impact exists in the literature.

In this subproject individual drops are produced by a drop generator within a pressure chamber. The droplets fall accelerated by gravity onto a heated target. This process is to be recorded with a high-speed camera system. At the same time the thickness of the vapor layer between the impact plate and the drop is measured with a far-field microscope. In case of the droplet impacting onto the wall, this high-resolution visualization is also suitable for the measurement of contact angles. The resulting secondary drops are to be captured with the aid of either a phase Doppler interferrometer or with the Interferometric Particle Imaging (IPI) technique.

The focus of the experimental part of the research is on the impact of ambient pressure (as well as several other factors such as impact parameters, properties of the liquid and the target, etc ..), onto the break-up limit, the Leidenfrost temperature, the dynamic contact angle, the shape of the drop impact and the parameters of the secondary spray.

The theoretical part of the study is the development of an analytical description of the flow, within the spreading drops and within the vapor layer as well as the description of the stability of this layer. This analysis will allow for the determination of the anticipated size and speed of the secondary drop. The long-term goal of this project is to develop a complete analytical model of the drop impact under extreme pressure conditions with phase change, including an analytical description of the droplet icing, the drop distribution inside an electric field and of the dynamic contact angle. The developed model will be implemented into a numerical code. Therefore the subproject is closely linked to several other subprojects of the SFB-TRR 75.
