The CFD Simulation Analysis on Flow Field of Array Ultrasonic Atomizing Nozzle Coating System

Abstract:

This study aims at the array ultrasonic nozzle sprayed atomization flow field on flat plate, and uses different design and operating parameter combinations to analyze the distribution of spray flow field, the analytic results can be used to improve the flat plate coating performance of the array ultrasonic nozzle spraying equipment. The simulation analysis results will be compared and validated by practical spray coating experiment, so as to determine the reliability of simulation to implement the spray flow field simulation technique for large area uniform spray coating. The mean error value is less than 24%, proving that the simulation results have certain feasibility and accuracy.
