Abstract

A new mathematical model is developed for calculating droplet break-up frequency based on both drag and turbulence induced fragmentation stresses. The droplet break-up model is introduced into a CFD methodology that is based on the Eulerian–Eulerian approach. The CFD solver couples the population balance equation along with the Navier–Stokes equations for predicting the droplets diameter. Finally, preliminary results using this CFD model are presented for the case of a coaxial airblast atomizer and a good agreement with the experimental data is achieved.
