Established in 1968, PNR Italia is a proud part of the Tecomec Group since 2024, with decades of experience in designing and producing high-quality spray nozzles and systems for large industrial plants. Renowned for its Italian-made technology and innovation, PNR Italia has been a trusted partner across industries worldwide.

Adoption of CFD at PNR Italia

Committed to continuous improvement, PNR Italia has invested in a dedicated Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) department over recent years. CFD serves as a vital tool to enhance product performance, providing deeper insights into spray and atomization processes to fine-tune nozzle design and operational parameters.

Air-Mist Spray Technology – Overview of Twin fluid mixing sprayers

Below is a detailed diagram of the Twin fluid mixing sprayer. Pressurized liquid (1) and gas streams (2) interact together in the internal passages of the device. The mixing chamber (3) provides a first liquid jet break-up by means of the intercepting air jet. The nozzle tip, usually arranged with a swirler (4), provides a desired spray geometry.

Below is an Isosurface image from the Air Mist Spray CFD simulation. The internal fluid-dynamics involved are unique and very complex. Liquid and gas jets collide in crossflow and the Volume-Of-Fluid (VOF) model used in the simulation must be reliable.

Fluid – Wall interaction is also critical in the Internal Mixing Chamber (3). The twin-phase mixture flowing into the swirler’s passages receives a turbulent motion. Within the swirling chamber the liquid is forced to adhere to the walls (centrifugal effect), the air remains in the cyclone’s eye and is accelerated through the final orifice.

Challenges in Spray Cooling for Steel-Making

In the steel-making industry, precisely controlling the cooling rate of hot steel surfaces is critical. PNR Italia faced the challenge of accurately predicting the Heat Transfer Coefficient (HTC) of its air-mist nozzles under varying conditions such as feeding pressures, steel temperatures, and air/water consumption. Key difficulties included understanding complex breakup fluid dynamics and developing thermal models to optimize nozzle performance within a cooling tunnel environment.

How Simerics Addressed the Challenge

Using Simerics’ CFD software, PNR Italia developed and validated computational models to predict HTC curves with remarkable accuracy, especially in cooling regimes under the Leidenfrost limit where boiling effects are minimal. The Volume of Fluid (VOF) module efficiently managed the nozzle’s internal multi-phase mixing and external spray break-up with limited computational resources, making simulations economically viable for industrial use.

Conclusion

Both air and water flow rates were close to the measured values for the same working condition (error within 3%). The measured droplet velocities from PNR’s laser interferometry apparatus found correct feedback from the CFD model too.

PNR Italia’s synergy with customers and usage of advanced CFD  (Simerics) have proven invaluable in optimizing spray cooling in steel-making processes.

This approach not only enhances nozzle tuning for desired cooling speeds but also sets a benchmark for industrial-standard simulation and quality.

In some cases, detecting leaks can be challenging using standard CAD based capabilities. In such instances, this feature proves highly effective by automating the detection process, thereby reducing manual effort, significantly saving time, and simplifying the CAD cleanup. It identifies and seals all the gaps with a single click, enabling the extraction of the fluid domain and the separation of internal and external volumes as per user requirements. Once the leaks are closed, the same mesh can be used for the simulation, eliminating the need for remeshing.

Leak Closure (SEALS) Features

This section explains the various options available in the Leak Closure (SEALS) to find and close the unwanted gaps inside the geometry:

You can access this feature from the Mesh panel as shown here.

Inside Definition

The first step is to define where the interior volumes are in the model using either:

Points: Uses a predefined monitor point that needs to be placed at a co-ordinate location that is known to be within the interior fluid region. The position and number of points should be adjusted to effectively capture the leak path. Multiple points can be used for bigger and complex geometry:

Note: It can help to define the Points near likely gap locations, where the probability of leakage is higher.

Patches: Is used to select a surface patch that is within the interior fluid region. This surface needs to be defined before the geometry is meshed. The position and number of patches should be adjusted to effectively capture the leak path. It is beneficial for large models with known gaps, as it simplifies the process compared to creating individual point sources.

Note: It helps to define the Patches near likely gap locations, where the probability of leakage is higher.

Find Leakage

Clicking this action button identifies all the leakage paths by creating an iso-surface of the fluid within the volume.

Display

• Volume: Provides a preview of the internal volume after sealing the leakage, showing the retained fluid domain. This allows the user to verify the fluid volume before proceeding.
• Leaks: Provides the cross-sectional view of the leakage path, indicating the region from which the fluid is escaping.

Position
It is used to separate the desired fluid volume either by defining the quantity or by adjusting the slider. It is a scalar quantity which can be varied between 0 to 1. A lower value allows the fluid volume to spread further from the specified interior point or patch.

Close Leakage
Once the Find Leakage step is completed the action button at the top of the panel changes to Close Leakage. Once the user has selected a relevant position click on this and the mesh volume will be split in two based on the surface shown. Once this seperation is complete additional volume entities will appear in the Geometric Entities panel. From here the user can decide whether to delete the interior or exterior volume or retain both depending on the purpose of the simulation.
