  • ChomiakInjector
The angle a parcel will be injected is a function of droplet size.
\alpha = \frac{d-d_{max}}{d_{min}-d_{max}} \alpha_{max}
The large drops go straight, whereas the smaller drops form the spray angle.
  • constantInjector
The initial dropsize is constant over time and defined by the droplet-nozzle diameter ratio.
Spray cone angle is also constant over time.
Works with multiple injectors.
  • definedHollowConeInjector
Initial drop size is defined by the dropletPDF and inner/outer cone angles are functions of time.
Only works with 1 injector.
  • definedPressureSwirlInjector
  • hollowConeInjector
Initial drop size is defined by the dropletPDF.
Inner and outer cone angles are constant in time.
  • pressureSwirlInjector
injection min/max angle is constant in time and
equal to coneAngle + 2*(coneInterval * ( 0.5 - rnd(0,1) )
maxKv is the maximum discharge coefficient
