Large eddy simulation of spray dispersion and mixing in a swirl stabilized gas turbine burner
The dispersion of droplets and mixing of evaporated gases in a swirl stabilized gas turbine combustor are studied with an Eulerian / Lagrangian approach. The results are shown to be highly sensitive to the assumed droplet injection diameter. Injection of smaller droplet diameters lead to significantly higher local equivalence ratios and temperature drops, and increased gas phase densities, enhanci
