Particle Collection by Water Injection in Test Cells

Abstract

This report summarizes the mechanisms by which particles may be removed when water is injected into turbine engine test cell exhaust streams. The report concludes that impaction between soot particles and droplets is the most important mechanism and that there is an optimum flow rate at which water should be injected to assure maximum removal efficiency.
