Based on the three-dimensional model of an external mixing fan-shaped air atomization nozzle, the atomization characteristics of the nozzle are analyzed. According to the nozzle, three kinds of orifice combination models are established, and the most basic model is simulated to verify the validity of the simulation model. The atomization characteristics of this type of air atomizing nozzle under different inlet pressure conditions are studied by CFD method. The effects of nozzle structure and inlet pressure on spray angle, droplet size, and the change of droplet size on different mixing sections are analyzed. The results shows that with the increase of inlet pressure, the distance required to reach the minimum droplet size is shortened, the expansion of the spray angle is mainly controlled by the airflow of the fan-shaped control holes, and the auxiliary atomization holes enhance the droplet refinement effect.
