Industrial Sprays and Atomization

Design, Analysis and Applications

Gives the industrial reader useful information on requirements for atomizers for different processes Introduces the likely problems to be circumvented in designing spray-delivery systems Gives the academic reader theoretical background on the nature, properties and generation of small-particle sprays Documents the uses of sprays in a wide variety of environments from fire suppression to agriculture and steel milling
1st Edition., 2002, XVIII, 502 p. 456 illus. Most of the relatively few texts currently available in the field of liquid atomization are prepared from theoretical or experimental viewpoints and often with an emphasis on fuel sprays for combustion purposes. Industrial Sprays and Atomization provides a critical and extensive compilation of the wide range of manufacturing processes that involve the application of spray technology in industry. It covers design of atomizers as well as the performance of plant and their corresponding spray systems. The content of the book covers the needs of practising engineers from different disciplines, who may include project managers, and works, maintenance and design engineers. It addresses the lack of in-depth understanding, in the area of the application of spray in industry. Of interest to researchers is the field of liquid sprays, information on fundamental processes involved is discussed, including outlines of the contemporary and possible future research and challenges in the different fields of application. These are all dealt with within the following general framework: sprays and their production; sprays in industrial production processes; processes involving vaporisation and cooling or cleaning of gases; processes involving spray surface impact; fuel sprays for fixed plant; spraying of hot surfaces for steel making and other metals; spraying of molten metals.
