  • TWO STEP METERING SOLENOID FOR MULTI-PHYSICS FUEL ATOMIZER
    Publication number: 20140083397
    Abstract: A metering system for a fuel atomizer includes a housing, first and second metering members, and at least one solenoid. The housing includes a mixing chamber. The first metering member is operable to control flow of oxidizer to the mixing chamber. The second metering member is arranged coaxial with the first metering member and operable to control flow of fuel to the mixing chamber. The at least one solenoid is configured to operate at least one of the first and second metering members.

  • Multi-physics fuel atomizer and methods
    Patent number: 8672234
    Abstract: A fuel atomizer that includes a housing having a fuel inlet and at least one primary orifice positioned at the inlet, wherein the at least one orifice configured to disperse a stream of fuel into a plurality of fuel droplets. The plurality of fuel droplets contact a fuel impingement surface to break up the plurality of fuel droplets into a plurality of smaller secondary droplets and create a thin film of secondary droplets on the impingement surface. At least one pressurized air channel delivers an airflow into contact with the secondary droplets. The secondary droplets pass through a plurality of secondary outlet orifices to exit the housing. A size of the plurality of secondary droplets is reduced when passing out of the plurality of secondary orifices.
