Resumo(s)
The injection of nitrogen under supercritical and transcritical conditions, where the injection temperature is below nitrogen’s critical point, but the pressure is above it, is considered in this paper. While the scientific community recognizes that the sharp gradients of the different thermophysical parameters make it inappropriate to employ a two-phase flow modeling at conditions above the critical point, the issue is not restrained to the mere representation of turbulence for a mono-phase flow. Instead, a quantitative similarity with gas-jet-like behavior led to proposing an incompressible but variable density hypothesis suitable for describing supercritical and sub/near-critical conditions. Presently, such an approach is extended and assessed for a configuration including injector heat transfer. As such, axial density and temperature decay rates and jet spreading rates of density and temperature are evaluated, indicating a higher mixing efficiency in the supercritical regime and an overall dominance of heat propagation over momentum transport, with a greater preponderance in the supercritical regime.
