AN ANALYTIC EVALUATION OF THE IMPINGEMENT OF AIR-BORNE WATER PARTICLES ON A 90-DEGREE TURNING VANE,

Abstract

Analytic and experimental methods were used to evaluate the performance of a porous surface 90-deg turning vane in removing entrained water spray particles from an airstream. Data were obtained for the water separation efficiency of the vane, and the spray particle size distribu tion curve was determined. An analytical meth od for calculating the amount and chordwise distribution of water impinging on the vane surface is given. The predictions of this theory were in reasonably good agreement with experi mental results.
