The thesis deals with experimental research of mechanism of liquid breakup at twin-fluid atomizers. Four different atomizers were examined at the beginning of the research. Two of them were of standard design (Y-jet and effervescent nozzles), and the rest two atomizers were developed as a part of the thesis (so called CFT and inversed effervescent atomizers). Results show that only the inversed effervescent atomizer was capable of generating stable spray under examined conditions due to the specific breakup mechanism. This mechanism is similar to what was observed in effervescent atomizers. However, the mixing process inside the inversed effervescent atomizer is very different. The specific breakup mechanism was then defined as the main scope of the thesis. It was investigated by the high-speed imaging. The images were then processed by proper orthogonal decomposition and by fast Fourier transformation. Spray spatial development was examined using phase Doppler anemometer. The data was analyzed to describe the dynamics of the spray. A detailed description of the breakup mechanism is made from the combination of the experimental and post-processing techniques. The thesis brings new insight into the understanding of the liquid breakup mechanism and shows a potential for a further development of the inversed effervescent atomizer.

In this thesis I deal with the project of a robotic apparatus that could be used for material treatment by using the gliding arc discharge as well as the appropriate design and choice of materials for the atmospheric pressure discharge jet with regards to a possibility of an industrial use. The input and output parameters were studied, such as the air flow regulation with regards to cooling, the design and choice of materials. Then I observed the temperatures near electrodes depending on the air flow. The applicability of the created atmospheric discharge was taken into account.

The aim of the thesis is to put a transparent scaled PMMA model of the pressure swirl nozzle into operation, which includes, the selection of working fluids and the preparation of a test set to allow measurements using optical methods (LDA, PDA, PIV, high-speed visualization). The theoretical part describes the basic theory of atomization, optical measurement methods and deals with the problems of optical transition in optically complex systems. It also includes an extensive search for transparent liquids and materials of enlarged models that have been used in experiments, which often aim to match light refractive indices between these materials. In the practical part, attention is paid to the preparation of the test set and tests of chemical effects of several selected liquids on PMMA material are conducted, including a summary of experience with their use, as there was a permanent damage to the material. Several LDA measurements followed, using kerosene, p-cymene, 1-bromonaphthalene and water, evaluated the effect of the refractive index difference on the results. It turned out that no observable influence occurred if the refractive index difference between the nozzle material and the liquid was small. In addition, a visualization of internal flow through a high-speed camera was made. The practical part closes the static pressure measurement in the nozzle chamber, where the pressure ratio was measured on the walls of the chamber as well as on its axis. The measurement confirmed that the pressure on the chamber walls is constant and varies with the distance from the chamber axis.

The dissertation thesis deals with the application of absorption methods for the separation of gaseous pollutants from polluted gaseous mixtures using a pilot plant scrubber. The efficiency of the gaseous pollutant removal was determined based on the hydrodynamic distribution of fluids inside the spray chamber. A TF-28 150 spiral nozzle, which was used to spray the absorption liquid, was experimentally characterized. Specifically, the pressure impact pattern of the liquid produced by the nozzle was investigated using intrusive methods and the effective spray angles, the modes of primary and secondary atomization, the droplet size and liquid velocity distributions were determined using non-intrusive optical methods. Numerical simulations of flow of model gas phase inside the sprinkler head and spraying of the liquid through the spiral nozzle were also carried out. The obtained data can be applied to estimate the interface area and together with the determination of the coefficient of total mass transfer thus define the kinetics of chemisorption for a given absorbent/absorbate combination.

Tlakové vířivé trysky (TVT) jsou používané v mnoha aplikacích, kde je potřebná velká plocha kapek nebo kde povrch musí být nanesen kapalinou, např. spalování, sprejové chlazení nebo nanášení barev. Parametry spreje z TVT jsou úzce spojené s jejich vnitřním prouděním. Obtokové trysky vylepšují koncepci klasických TVT přítomností otvoru, skrz který může kapalina odtékat zpět do nádrže. Díky této koncepci je možné regulovat vstřikovací množství kapaliny změnou průtoku tímto otvorem, zatímco se ve vířivé komůrce udržuje vysoký tlak, který zaručí dobrou kvalitu spreje. Obtokové trysky byly historicky málo prozkoumány a jejich vnitřní proudění nebylo studováno téměř vůbec. V této práci je popsáno vnitřní proudění několika obtokových trysek jak experimentálně, tak numericky. Tato data jsou následně korelována s měřenými vlastnostmi spreje. Výsledky ukazují, že přidání obtokového otvoru silně ovlivní vnitřní proudění i v případech, kdy obtokem neproudí žádná kapalina. V některých případech se vůbec nezformuje vzdušné jádro a tím se destabilizuje výtok z trysky, čímž vznikne nestabilní sprej. Mimoosé obtokové otvory generují a stabilizují vzdušné jádro, což pomáhá formovat kapalinovou stěnu a vysoce kvalitní sprej. Nicméně některé konfigurace změnily charakter rozpadu kapalinové stěny, což se projevilo i na kvalitě spreje. Navíc regulační schopnost a stabilita spreje závisí na vzdálenosti obtokových otvorů od osy vířivé komůrky. Na závěr byla upravena neviskózní teorie, která analyticky popisuje vnitřní proudění v TVT, tak aby byla aplikovatelná i na obtokové trysky. Pomocí tohoto přístupu byla odvozena teoretická predikce výtokového součinitele a velikosti vzdušného jádra v závislosti na obtokovém poměru (SFR). Zároveň byly pro obtokové trysky upraveny empirické korelace původně odvozené pro TVT. Tato práce přináší nový vhled k porozumění vnitřního proudění obtokových trysek a její výsledky najdou uplatnění při jejich návrhu.
