Modelado CFD de la atomización del combustible en quemadores de turbinas de gas

[EN] In gas turbine combustors, there is a continuous high velocity airflow in which the fuel is injected by means of an atomizer. Given the high turbulence of the airstream, induced through a swirler, the fuel (also injected in a continuous manner) is quickly broken up into sheets and/or layers. Th...

Sumario:[EN] In gas turbine combustors, there is a continuous high velocity airflow in which the fuel is injected by means of an atomizer. Given the high turbulence of the airstream, induced through a swirler, the fuel (also injected in a continuous manner) is quickly broken up into sheets and/or layers. The purpose of this work is to study this process through CFD techniques. A mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian (for the air flow modelling and the tracking of the fuel particles, respectively) model will be implemented. Turbulence, in turn, will need to be modelled as well. The code will be validated against experimental measurements reported in the literature.
