Abstract
This paper presents atomization characteristics of a double impinging F-O-O -F type injector with four streams. A phase Doppler particle analyzer was e mployed to measure the droplet-size and water was used as the inert simulan t liquid instead of reactive propellant liquids. The droplet mean diameter (SMD) and size distribution were measured to investigate the effects of the momentum ratio and pressure drop variations. This experimental results can be used during the preliminary design stage of a impinging stream type inj ector for liquid rockets.
