Abstract
Since the atomization process occurs in the narrow region which is vicinity of the injection outlet in a practical geometry fuel injector, it is difficult to understand the atomization phenomena only by experiment. The objective of this work is to understand the atomization mechanism by numerical study which calculated the atomization field in the near region of the injection outlet.
Goal
In order to promote the efficiency of the combustor development process, numerical analysis of atomization phenomena in a practical geometry which is used in a combustor of Green engine project is conducted.
Objective
The target of this study is to acquire knowledge from series of CFD calculations for constructing CFD technology which can be applied to a development of aircraft engine combustor.

Use of the Supercomputer
To conduct the parametric analysis of large scale, complex fuel atomization field, which concerns the practical geometry precisely, in the short term, the super computer is used practically.
Necessity of the Supercomputer
The particle diameter is order of 10μm in the experiment. In order to calculate this size of atomization field precisely, large scale calculation with more than a few of hundred million of cells which size is a few micron meter order is needed and the use of super computer is necessary.
Achievements of the Year
Numerical analysis with VOF method of the fuel atomization field is conducted and revealed the condition of the particles broken up from cross-flow jet.
