- Abstract
The effect of the injection pressure on the dynamic flow characteristics of a lean direct injection gas turbine combustor under nonreactive conditions during liquid fuel atomization was investigated. The location of the internal recirculation core, size of the vortex breakdown bubble, and shape of the precessing vortex core and shear layer were confirmed by increasing the fuel injection pressure. It was found that as the fuel injection pressure increased, the momentum of the droplets increased. The tangential momentum of the constant main air swirl flow transferred to the droplets increased as the pressure increased, causing the swirl strength to decrease. It was confirmed that, as the swirl intensity decreased with increasing injection pressure, the shape of the precessing vortex core generated in front of the combustor became shorter, and the size of the central recirculation area also decreased.
