摘要: Spray cooling with liquid nitrogen is increasingly utilized as an efficient approach to achieve cryogenic cooling. Effects of injection mass flow rate fluctuations on the evaporation, temperature distribution, and droplet distribution a spray field were examined by employing validated Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) numerical model. The results indicated that enhanced volume-averaging turbulent kinetic energy promoted evaporation whole field. strengthened heat transfer between droplets surrounding vapor created fluctuating led lower volume. A relatively smaller size more inhomogeneous obtained under unsteady inlet. changes frequency amplitude had little effects overall development. could enrich knowledge relation inevitable development performance in practical system fluids.
