3D mapping of droplet Sauter mean diameter in sprays
(2019) In Applied Optics 58(14). p.3775-3783- Abstract
- In this study, we report on the three-dimensional (3D) characterization of a spray in terms of its droplet Sautermean diameter (SMD) using the laser-induced fluorescence (LIF)/Mie ratio technique. The spray structure isanalyzed for a multi-hole direct-injection spark ignition (DISI) injector. A calibration curve to convert theLIF/Mie ratio to droplet diameter is deduced using LIF/Mie imaging and analysis of single droplets generatedby a droplet generator. The DISI spray investigated here is optically sectioned by means of two-phase structuredlaser illumination planar imaging to suppress the intensity of multiple light scattering from LIF and Mie imagesprior to their ratio. A series of calibrated LIF/Mie ratio images of spray is then... (More)

The DISI spray investigated here is optically sectioned by means of two-phase structuredlaser illumination planar imaging to suppress the intensity of multiple light scattering from LIF and Mie imagesprior to their ratio. A series of calibrated LIF/Mie ratio images of spray is then recorded at several depths along thezdirection following the light sheet scanning of the spray. The droplet SMD ranges from less than 5μmuptoamaximum of 50μm in single-shot images. The averaged SMD results (1–30μm) obtained by using the calibrationcurve from the droplet generator are compared with measurement results from phase-Doppler anemometry.Finally, a 3D map is reconstructed from the successive 2D layers generated from spray scanning. The resulting3D representation of the droplet SMD shows a non-symmetric spray structure produced by the studied multi-hole injector, which cannot be resolved by analyzing only one central plane.
