液氮喷雾冷却是实现低温风洞的关键技术,旨在满足先进飞行器对高雷诺数风洞试验的需求。喷雾阵列所形成的密集雾场会显著增加多液滴碰撞概率,而多液滴碰撞行为将影响雾化特性和蒸发特性。现有研究多集中于常温工质的双液滴碰撞,而对低温工质特别是多液滴碰撞的关注不足。为了揭示液氮多液滴碰撞的动力学规律,明确液滴数量对碰撞结果的影响,本文采用流体体积(VOF)方法,对静止气流中双液滴及三液滴的碰撞过程进行了三维数值模拟,研究了韦伯数(
We
=8-204)与碰撞参数(
B
=0、0.4、0.8)对碰撞动力学的影响。研究结果表明:(1)液氮液滴碰撞呈现融合、反弹分离、拉伸分离和破碎四类形态,其分布由
We
和
B
共同决定。与双液滴碰撞相比,三液滴碰撞在
B
=0.4时未出现破碎形态,且在
B
=0时发生分离与破碎的临界韦伯数更高,表明液滴数量增加提升了系统的抗破碎能力。(2)在对心碰撞过程中,
We
越大,液滴越扁平,越有利于蒸发。碰撞参数
B
增大与液滴数量增加均会增强拉伸效果。(3)能量分析显示,对心碰撞的能量转化最为剧烈;随
B
的增加,能量振荡减弱。在相同条件下,三液滴碰撞比双液滴碰撞表现出更频繁的表面能变化和更高的动能峰值,表明多液滴碰撞内部能量交换更加剧烈。本文研究可为液氮喷雾系统冷却性能的预测及优化提供理论依据。
Liquid nitrogen (LN₂) spray cooling is a key technology for cryogenic wind tunnels
which is essential for high-Reynolds-number wind tunnel tests of advanced aircr
aft. The dense spray field produced by spray arrays significantly increases multi-droplet collision probability
and such collisions profoundly influence atomization and evaporation characteristics. Most existing studies have primarily focused on binary droplet collisions of room-temperature working fluids
with insufficient attention to cryogenic working fluids
particularly multi-droplet collisions. To reveal the dynamic behavior of LN₂ multi-droplet collisions and clarify the influence of droplet number on collision outcomes
three-dimensional numerical simulations of binary and ternary droplet collisions in quiescent air were performed using the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method. The effects of Weber number (
We
= 8–204) and impact parameter (
B
= 0
0.4
0.8) on collision dynamics are systematically investigated. The results indicate that: (1) LN₂ droplet collisions exhibit four morphologies—coalescence
bouncing separation
stretching separation
and breakup—whose distribution is jointly determined by
We
and
B
. Compared with binary collisions
ternary collisions do not exhibit breakup at
B
= 0.4
and the critical Weber number for separation and breakup at
B
= 0 is higher
indicating that an increased number of droplets enhances the system’s resistance to breakup. (2) In head-on collisions
higher
We
leads to flatter droplets
favoring evaporation. Increasing
B
and the number of droplets strengthens the stretching effect. (3) Energy analysis reveals that head-on collisions involve the most intense energy conversion. As
B
increases
energy oscillations are attenuated. Under a given condition
ternary collisions display more frequent surface energy fluctuations and higher kinetic energy peaks compared with binary collisions
indicating that multi-droplet collisions intensify internal energy exchanges. This study could provide a theoretical basis for predicting
and optimizing the cooling performance of liquid nitrogen spray systems.
