ABSTRACT
Simulating liquid spray first and second atomization is not an easy task. Many models have been developed over the past years, but Eulerian ones have proved their better performance for the dense zone of the spray. In this work a new compressible Eulerian model is used to compute the internal flow together with the spray. Up to five two-equation turbulence models have been tested and its influence is remark- able in terms of spray behavior, but also greatly affects the mass flow rate and the momentum flux. At the end, SST k x model proves to be best than the others. Additionally, different types of inlet boundary con- ditions have been also tested and analyzed. Results when compared with previously obtained experimental data show that the commonly used for external flow time-varying velocity boundary condition gives also good performance for the internal flow.<br/>This research was funded in the frame of Project "Compresion de la influencia de combustibles no convencionales en el proceso de inyeccion y combustion tipo Diesel" reference TRA2012-36932 from Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad (Spanish Ministry of Economy).<br/>
