The present application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/133,109; filed May 7, 1999.
The present invention relates generally to liquid-atomizing spray nozzles, and more particularly to an air-assisted or "airblast" fuel nozzle for turbine combustion engines, the nozzle having a multiplicity of aerodynamic turning vanes arranged to define an outer air "swirler" providing for a more uniform atomization of the fuel flow stream.
Liquid atomizing nozzles are employed, for example, in gas turbine combustion engines and the like for injecting a metered amount of fuel from a manifold into a combustion chamber of the engine as an atomized spray of droplets for mixing with combustion air. The fuel is supplied at a relatively high pressure from the manifold into, typically, an internal swirl chamber of the nozzle which imparts a generally helical component vector to the fuel flow. The fuel flow exits the swirl chamber and is issued through a discharge orifice of the nozzle as a swirling, thin, annular sheet of fuel surrounding a central core of air. As the swirling sheet advances away from the discharge orifice, it is separated into a generally-conical spray of droplets, although in some nozzles the fuel sheet is separated without swirling.
In basic construction, fuel nozzle assemblies of the type herein involved are constructed as having an inlet fitting which is configured for attachment to the manifold of the engine, and a nozzle or tip which is disposed within the combustion chamber of the engine as having one or more discharge orifices for atomizing the fuel. A generally tubular stem or strut is provided to extend in fluid communication between the nozzle and the fitting for supporting the nozzle relative to the manifold. The stem may include one or more internal fuel conduits for supplying fuel to one or more spray orifices defined within the nozzle. A flange may be formed integrally with the stem as including a plurality of apertures for the mounting of the nozzle to the wall of the combustion chamber. Appropriate check valves and flow dividers may be incorporated within the nozzle or stem for regulating the flow of fuel through the nozzle. A heat shield assembly such as a metal sleeve, shroud, or the like additionally is included to surround the portion of the stem which is disposed within the engine casing. The shield provides a thermal barrier which insulates the fuel from carbonization or "choking," the products of which are known to accumulate within the orifices and fuels passages of the nozzle and stem resulting in the restriction of the flow of fuel therethrough.
Fuel nozzles are designed to provide optimum fuel atomization and flow characteristics under the various operating conditions of the engine. Conventional nozzle types include simplex or single orifice, duplex or dual orifice, and variable port designs of varying complexity and performance. Representative nozzles of these types are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,013,732; 3,024,045; 3,029,029; 3,159,971; 3,201,050; 3,638,865; 3,675,853; 3,685,741; 3,899,884; 4,134,606; 4,258,544; 4,425,755; 4,600,151; 4,613,079; 4,701,124; 4,735,044; 4,854,127; 4,977,740; 5,062,792; 5,174,504; 5,269,468; 5,228,283; 5,423,178; 5,435,884; 5,484,107; 5,570,580; 5,615,555; 5,622,054; 5,673,552; and 5,740,967.
As issued from the nozzle orifice, the swirling fluid sheet atomizes naturally due to high velocity interaction with the ambient combustion air and to inherent instabilities in the fluid dynamics of the vortex flow. However, the above-described simplex or duplex nozzles also may be used in conjunction with a stream of high velocity and/or high pressure air, which may be swirling, applied to one or both sides of the fluid sheet. In certain applications, the air stream may improve the atomization of the fuel for improved performance. Depending upon whether the air is supplied from a source external or internal to the engine, these "air-atomizing" nozzles which employ an atomization air stream are termed "air-assisted" or "airblast." Airblast and air-assisted nozzles have been described as having an advantage over what arc termed "pressure" atomizers in that the distribution of the fluid droplets through the combustion zone is dictated by a airflow pattern which remains fairly constant over most operations conditions of the engine. Nozzles of the airblast or air-assisted type are described further in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,474,970; 3,866,413; 3,912,164; 3,979,069; 3,980,233; 4,139,157; 4,168,803; 4,365,753; 4,941,617; 5,078,324; 5,605,287; 5,697,443; 5,761,907; and 5,782,626.
Most, if not all, of the aforementioned nozzle designs incorporate swirlers or other turning vanes to impart a generally helical motion to one or more of the fluid flow streams within the nozzle. For example, certain airblast nozzles employ an outer air swirler configured on the surface of a generally-annular member which forms the primary body of the nozzle. In this regard, the body has an inlet orifice and outlet orifice or discharge for the flow of inner air and fuel streams. A series of spaced-apart, parallel turning vanes are provided on a radial outer surface of the body as disposed circumferentially about the discharge orifice. As incorporated into the nozzle, the primary nozzle body is coaxially disposed within a surrounding, secondary nozzle body or shroud such that the radial outer surface of the primary nozzle body defines an annular conduit with a concentric inner surface of the secondary nozzle body for the flow of an outer, atomizing air stream. As each of the vanes is disposed at an angle relative to the central longitudinal axis of the swirler and the direction of air flow, a helical motion is imparted to the atomizing air which exits the nozzle as a swirling stream.
Particularly with respect to airblast or air-assisted nozzles of the type herein involved, the ability to produce a desired fuel spray which is finely atomized into droplets of uniform size is dependent upon the preparation of the atomizing air flow upstream of the atomization point. That is, excessive pressure drop or other loss of velocity in the atomization air can result in larger droplets and a coarser fuel spray. Large or non-uniform droplets also can result from a non-uniform velocity profile or other gradients such as wakes and eddies in the atomizing air flow.
Heretofore, air swirlers of the type herein involved have employed vanes of relatively simple slots or flats, or helical or curved geometries to guide and control fluid flow. In certain applications, however, slots or vanes of these types may provide less than optimum performnance. In this regard, reference may be had to FIG. 1 wherein fluid flow through a pair of parallel, helical vanes is shown in schematic at 10. Each of the helical vanes, referenced at 12 a and 12 b, has a leading edge, 14 a-b, and a trailing edge, 16 a-b, respectively, and is disposed at a turning or incidence angle, θ, relative to the upstream direction of fluid flow which is indicated by arrow 18. The vanes are spaced-apart radially to define a flow passage, referenced at 20, therebetween.
As may be seen in the schematic of FIG. 1, with the fluid flow being directed to define a lower pressure or suction side, referenced at "S," and a higher pressure or pressure side, referenced at "P," of the vanes 12, some separation of the flow from the suction side is evident beginning at the leading edge 14 of each of the vanes. This separation, which produces the leading edge bubbles depicted by the streamlines referenced at 22 a-b, and the trailing edge wakes, eddies, vorticities, or other recirculation flow depicted by the streamlines referenced at 24 a-b, has the effect of reducing the area for fluid flow through the vane passages 20, and of developing strong secondary flows within the stream which can persist many vane lengths downstream of the vanes 12. Thus, and particularly for medium or high turning angles, i.e., between about greater than about 8�, a helical vane profile can result in a diminished flow volume from the nozzle, non-uniform downstream velocity profiles, and otherwise in velocity or pressure losses and than optimum performance.
Turning next to FIG. 2, the fluid flow through a pair of parallel, curved vanes is shown for purposes of comparison at 10′. As before, each of the curved vanes 12 a-b′ has a leading edge 14 a-b′, and a trailing edge 16 a-b′, respectively, and is disposed at a turning or incidence angle, θ, relative to the direction of fluid flow which again is indicated by arrow 18. The vanes are spaced-apart radially to define a flow passage 20′ therebetween.
As compared to that of the helical vanes of FIG. 1, the flow through the curved vanes 12′ exhibits no appreciable bubble separation at the leading edges 14. However, as the trailing edges 16′ of the vanes are not parallel, that is the suction side S of vane 12 a′ is not parallel to the pressure side P of vane 12 b′, losses are produced and the flow becomes non-uniform at that point as shown by the separation referenced at 24 a-b′. At large turning angles, i.e., greater than about 15�, the effect becomes more pronounced and may result in pressure losses, non-uniform velocity profiles, and recirculation flows downstream.
In view of the foregoing, it will be appreciated that improvements in the design of fuel nozzles for turbine combustion engines and the like would be well-received by industry. A preferred design would ensure a uniform atomization profile under a range of operating conditions of the engine.
The present invention is directed principally to airblast or air-assisted fuel nozzles for dispensing an atomized fluid spray into the combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine or the like, and particularly to an outer air swirler arrangement for such nozzles having an aerodynamic vane design which minimizes non-uniformities, such as separation, pressure drop, azimuthal velocity gradients, and secondary flows in the atomizing air flow. The swirler arrangement of the present invention thereby produces a relatively uniform, regular flow downstream of the vanes which minimizes entropy generation and energy losses and maximizes the volume or mass flow rate of air through the vane passages. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that, as the velocity and total pressure of the swirling atomizing air as it impinges the annular liquid sheet is substantially uniform, the formation of large droplets in the atomized sheet is minimized. Moreover, as the velocity of the atomizing air is higher due to reduced total pressure losses, the formation of small droplets is believed to be facilitated. The overall result is that the atomization performance of a given nozzle may be enhanced to provide a smaller mean droplet size over the full range of turning angles typically specified for turbine combustion engines. Equivalently, less atomization air is required to achieve a specified droplet size.
As the name implies, the "aerodynamic" vanes of the present invention are characterized as having the general shape of an airfoil with a leading edging and a trailing edge, and are arranged radially about the outer circumference of the swirler such that the trailing edge surfaces of adjacent vanes are generally parallel. As is shown in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,588,824; 5,351,477; 5,511,375; 5,394,688; 5,299,909; 5,251,447; 4,246,757; and 2,526,410, aerodynamic vanes have been utilized for turbine blades, and within the nozzle or combustion chamber to direct the flow of combustion air. Heretofore, however, it was not appreciated that such vanes also might be used to guide the flow of atomizing air in airblast nozzles. Indeed, it was not expected that the atomization performance of existing airblast nozzles could be rather dramatically improved while still satisfying such constraints as structural integrity, envelope size, and manufacturability at a reasonable cost.
In an illustrated embodiment, the air-atomizing fuel nozzle of the invention is provided as including a body assembly with an inner fuel passage and an annular outer atomizing air passage. The inner fuel passage extends axially along a longitudinal axis to a first terminal end defining a first discharge orifice of the nozzle. The outer atomizing air passage extends coaxially with the inner fuel passage along the longitudinal axis to a second terminal end disposed concentrically with the first terminal end and defining a second discharge orifice oriented such that the discharge therefrom impinges on the fuel discharge from the first discharge orifice. An array of turning vanes is disposed within the outer atomizing air passage in a circular locus about the longitudinal axis. Each of the vanes is configured generally in the shape of an airfoil and has a pressure side and an opposing suction side. The vanes extend axially from a leading edge surface to a tapering trailing edge surface along a corresponding array of chordal axes, each of which axes is disposed at a given turning angle to the longitudinal axis. The suction side of each vane is spaced-apart from a juxtaposing pressure side of an adjacent vane to define a corresponding one of a plurality of aligned air flow channels therebetween.
In operation, a fuel flow is directed through the inner fuel passage with atomizing air flow being directed through the flow channels of the outer air passage. Fuel is discharged into the combustion chamber of the engine from the first discharge orifice and as a generally annular sheet, with atomizing air being discharged from the second discharge orifice flow as a surrounding swirl which impinges on the fuel sheet. As a result of the uniform velocity profile developed in the swirl by the effect of the aerodynamic turning vanes, the sheet is atomized into a spray of droplets of more uniform size.
The present invention, accordingly, comprises the apparatus and method possessing the construction, combination of elements, and arrangement of parts and steps which are exemplified in the detailed disclosure to follow. Advantages of the present invention include an airblast or air-assisted nozzle construction which provides for a reduction in the mean droplet size in the liquid spray, and which utilizes less atomizing air to effect a specified droplet size. Additional advantages include an airblast or air-assisted nozzle which provides consistent atomization over a full range of turning angles and a wide range of engine operating conditions.
These and other advantages will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art based upon the disclosure contained herein.

Certain terminology may be employed in the following description for convenience rather than for any limiting purpose. For example, the terms "forward," "rearward" "right," "left," "upper," and "lower" designate directions in the drawings to which reference is made, with the terms "inward," "inner," or "inboard" and "outward," "outer," or "outboard" referring, respectively, to directions toward and away from the center of the referenced element, the terms "radial" and "axial" referring, respectively, to directions or planes perpendicular and parallel to the longitudinal central axis of the referenced element, and the terms "downstream" and "upstream" referring, respectively, to directions in and opposite that of fluid flow.

For the purposes of the discourse to follow, the precepts of the nozzle and the aerodynamically-vaned outer swirler thereof are described in connection with the utilization of such swirler within a nozzle of an airblast variety. It will be appreciated, however, that aspects of the present invention may find application in other nozzle, including air-assisted types and the like which utilize an outer flow of atomization air. Use within those such other nozzles therefore should be considered to be expressly within the scope of the present invention.
Referring to the figures wherein corresponding reference characters are used to designate corresponding elements throughout the several views shown, depicted generally at 30 in FIG. 3 is a combustion system of a type adapted for use within a gas turbine engine for an aircraft or the like. System 30 includes a generally annular or cylindrical outer housing, 32, which encloses an internal combustion chamber, 34, having a forward air diffuser, 36, for admitting combustion air. Diffuser 36 extends rearwardly to a liner, 38, within which the combustion is contained. A fuel nozzle or injector, 40, which may have an integrally-formed, radial flange, 41, is received within, respectively, openings 42 and 43 as extending into combustion chamber 34 and liner 38. An igniter (not shown) additionally may be received through housing 32 into combustion chamber 34 for igniting a generally conical atomizing spray of fuel or like, represented at 44, which is dispensed from nozzle 40.
Nozzle 40 extends into chamber 34 from an external inlet end, 46, to an internal discharge end or tip end, 48, which extends along a central longitudinal axis, 49. Inlet end 46 has a fitting, 50, for connection to one or more sources of pressurized fuel and other fluids such as water. A tubular stem or strut, 52, is provided to extend in fluid communication between the inlet and tip ends 46 and 48 of nozzle 10. Stem 52 may be formed as including one or more internal fluid conduits (not shown) for supplying fuel and other fluids to one or more spray orifices defined within tip end 48.
Referring now to FIG. 4., discharge end 48 of nozzle 40 is shown in cross-sectional detail as including a body assembly, 60, involving a coaxial arrangement of a generally annular conduit member, 62, which extends axially along central axis 49, a generally annular first shroud member, 64, which is received coaxially over conduit 62, and, optionally, a generally annular second shroud member, 66, which is received coaxially over first shroud member 64. Each of members 62, 64, and 66 may be separately provided, for example, as generally tubular members which may be assembled and then joined using conventional brazing or welding techniques. Alternatively, members 62, 64, and 66 may be machined, die-cast, molded, or otherwise formed into an integral body assembly 60. The respective diameters of the conduits may be selected depending, for example, on the desired fluid flow rates therethrough.
Conduit member 62 is configured as having a circumferential outer surface, 68, and a circumferential inner surface, 70, and extends along central axis 49 from a rearward or upstream end, 72, to a forward or downstream end, 74. As is shown, upstream end 72 may be internally threaded as at 75, with downstream end 74 which terminating to define a generally circular first discharge orifice, 76.
First shroud member 64, also having an outer surface, 78, and an inner surface, 80, likewise extends along central axis 49 from an upstream end, 82, to a downstream end, 84, which terminates to define a second discharge orifice, 86, disposed generally concentric with first discharge orifice 76. Optionally, the downstream end 84 of first shroud member 64 may be provided to extend forwardly beyond first discharge orifice 76 and radially inwardly thereof in defining an angled surface, 87, which confronts first discharge orifice 76 for the prefilming of the atomizing spray 24 (FIG. 3) dispensed from nozzle 40. Prefilming is described further in commonly-assigned U.S. Pat. No. 4,365,753.
Second discharge orifice 86 thus is defined between the conduit member outer surface 68 and the inner surface 80 of first shroud member 64 as a generally annular opening which, depending upon the presence of prefilming surface 87, may extend either radially circumferentially about or inwardly of primary discharge orifice 46. A third discharge orifice, 88, similarly is defined concentrically with second discharge orifice 86 between an inner surface, 90, of second shroud member 66. Second shroud member 66, which also has an outer surface, 91, likewise extends coaxially with first shroud member 64 along central axis 49 intermediate an upstream end, 92, and a downstream end, 94.
With body assembly 60 being constructed as shown as described, an arrangement of concentric fluid passages is defined internally within nozzle 40 as extending mutually concentrically along axis 49 for the flow of fuel and air fluid components. In this regard, a first or primary atomizing air passage, 96, is annularly defined intermediate the first shroud member inner surface 80 and the outer surface 68 of conduit member 62, with a second or secondary atomizing air passage, 98, being similarly annularly defined intermediate first shroud member outer surface 78 and second shroud member inner surface 90. An inner, i.e., central, fuel passage, 100, is defined by the generally cylindrical inner surface 70 of conduit 62 to extend coaxially through the first and second outer atomizing air passages 96 and 98. Each of passages 96, 98, and 100 extend to a corresponding terminal end which defines the respective first, second, and third discharge orifices 76, 86, and 88. As may be seen, the terminal ends of the first and second outer atomizing air passage 96 and 98 are angled radially inwardly or otherwise oriented such that the discharge therefrom is made to impinge, i.e., intersect, the discharge from inner fuel passage 100.
An array of first turning vanes, one of which is referenced in phantom at 102, is disposed within passage 96, with an array of second turning vanes, one of which is referenced in phantom at 104, being similarly disposed within passage 98. Each of the arrays of vanes 102 and 104 is arranged in a circular locus relative to axis 49, and is configured to impart a helical or similarly vectored swirl pattern to the corresponding first or second atomizing air flow, designed by the streamlines 106 and 108, respectively, being directed through the associated passage 96 or 98.
With additional reference to the several views of conduit member 62 shown in FIGS. 5-7, each of the first turning vanes 102 may be seen to be configured in accordance with the precepts of the present invention to be "aerodynamic." That is, each of vanes 102 is configured as having an outer surface geometry which defines, in axial cross-section, the general shape of an airfoil. Airfoil shapes are well-known of course in the field of fluid dynamics, and are discussed, for example, by Goldstein in "Modern Developments in Fluid Dynamics," Vol. II, Dover Publ., Inc. (1965), and by Prandtl and Tietjens in "Applied Hydro- and Aerodynamics," Dover Publ., Inc. (1957). In general, such shapes are distinguished from elemental mathematical shapes such as circular arcs, elliptical arcs, parabolas, and the like, as extending along a chordal axis, 110, from a generally arcuate leading edge surface, 112, to a tapering trailing edge surface, 114. As may be seen best in the front view of FIG. 7, vanes 102 preferably are equally spaced-apart radially about said longitudinal axis to form a plurality of aligned air flow channels, 120, therebetween.
Referring next particularly to FIG. 8, a pair of adjacent vanes 102, designated 102 a and 102 b, is shown in enhanced detail at 130. From FIG. 8, it will be appreciated that, relative to the direction of the atomizing air flow 106, each of vanes 102 further is defined as having a pressure side, P, which may be generally concave, and a suction side, S, which may be generally convex such that, in the illustrated embodiment, vanes 102 are generally asymmetrical. As further is shown, the suction side S of each of the vanes 102 is spaced-apart radially from a juxtaposing pressure side P of an adjacent vane 102 to define an air flow channel 120 therebetween. By "convex" and "concave," it should be understood that the sides S and P each may be configured as simple geometrical curves or, alternatively, as complex curves including one or more inflection points.
For imparting a helical or turning vector to the air flow 106 such that the flow is made to be discharged from orifice 86 (FIG. 4) as a vortex or other "swirling" pattern, vanes 102 are oriented on surface 68 to be presented to the fluid flow at a common incidence or "turning" angle. That is, each of vanes 102 extends axially along a respective one of a corresponding array of mean chordal axes 110, with each axis 110 being disposed at a given trailing edge turning angle, a, relative to longitudinal axis 49 (which is transposed in FIG. 8 at 49′). In most air-atomizing applications of the type herein involved, angle a will be selected to be between about 40-70�.
Further in the illustrative embodiment of FIG. 8, it may be seen that for each vane 102, there is defined a trailing surface segment, referenced at 132 for vane 102 a, of the suction side S adjacent its trailing edge surface 114 which is disposed generally parallel to a corresponding trailing surface segment, referenced at 134 for vane 102 b, of the pressure side P of each adjacent vane 102. With such segments 132 and 134 being so disposed in general parallelism, each of the air flow channels 120 may defined as having a substantially uniform angular, i.e., azimuthal, extent or cross-section, referenced at r, along the trailing edge portions of the vanes 102. Such uniform extent r, as measured normal to the fluid flow path, referenced by streamline 136, through the vane channel 120, advantageously assists in producing a generally parallel, uniform flow downstream of the vanes 102. In the manufacture of conduit 62, vanes 102 may be machined, etched, laminated, bonded, or otherwise formed in or on the outer surface 68.
Although not considered critical to the precepts of the invention herein involved, the shape of vanes 102 further may be optimized for the envisioned application using known mathematical modeling techniques wherein the vane surface is "parmetrized." The level of fidelity of the mathematical model can be anywhere from a two-dimensional potential flow, i.e., ideal flow with no losses, up to a full three-dimensional, time-accurate model that includes all viscous effects. For a fuller appreciation of such modeling techniques, reference may be had to: Jameson et al., "Optimum Aerodynamic Design Using the Navier-Stokes Equations," AIAA 97-0101, 35th Aerospace Sciences Meeting & Exhibit, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Reno, Nev.

Returning to FIG. 4, second vanes 104 similarly may be defined within passage 98 as being formed in or on the outer surface 78 of first shroud member 64. Indeed, vanes 104 also may be aerodynamically configured in the airfoil shape described in connection with vanes 102. Alternatively, vanes 104 may be conventionally provided as having an elemental shape which may be straight, curved, helical, or the like.
Materials of construction for the components forming nozzle 40 of the present invention are to be considered conventional for the uses involved. Such materials generally will be a heat and corrosion resistant, but particularly will depend upon the fluid or fluids being handled. A metal material such as a mild or stainless steel, or an alloy thereof, is preferred for durability, although other types of materials may be substituted, however, again as selected for compatibility with the fluid being transferred. Packings, O-rings, and other gaskets of conventional design may be interposed where necessary to provide a fluid-tight seal between mating elements. Such gaskets may be formed of any elastomeric material, although a polymeric material such as Vitonθ (copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Inc., Wilmington, Dle.) is preferred.
In operation, an annular fuel flow, referenced in phantom at 140 in FIG. 4, may be directed as shown by streamlines 142 along the inner surface 70 of passage 100. An inner air flow, shown by streamlines 144, thereby may be being directed through the fuel flow 140 within passage 100, with the primary and secondary atomizing air flows 106 and 108 being directed, respectively, through passages 96 and 98 and vanes 102 and 104. Inner air flow 144 preferably is directed additionally through a conventional inner swirler or plug (not shown) so as to assume a generally helical flow pattern within the fuel annulus 140. The fuel and inner air flows are discharged as a generally annular sheet or cone from the first discharge orifice 76, whereupon the fuel flow is atomized by the impingement of the annular, swirling flows of atomizing air being discharged from orifices 86 and 88. With at least the first vanes 102 being provided as described, the first air flow advantageously is discharged as having a generally uniform velocity profile such that the discharge fuel sheet may be atomized into a spray of droplet of substantially uniform size.
The improved atomization performance of nozzle 40 of the present invention becomes apparent with reference to FIG. 9 wherein the fuel spray of a airblast nozzle having atomizing air vanes of a conventional, curved design (FIG. 9A) may be compared visually with the spray from a nozzle provided in accordance with the present invention (FIG. 9B) as having aerodynamic outer vanes 102 of the airfoil shape described hereinbefore in connection with FIGS. 4-8. With fuel flow being provided through both nozzles at 10.7 lbm/hr, and with air flow being provided at a pressure drop of 2.0 in (H2O), liquid streaks or "ligaments" and large or non-uniform droplets may be seen in the spay of FIG. 9A which are not seen in the spray of FIG. 9B, both of which sprays are at about the same cone angle. Without being bound by theory, it is speculated that with respect to the spray of FIG. 9A, circumferential non-uniformity in total pressure in the primary atomizing air, caused by wakes, vortices, separations, or other secondary flows, produces a region just downstream of the prefilmer wherein the fuel film is not immediately atomized. Such effect leads to the development of the liquid ligaments which are not significantly further atomized by the secondary atomizing air. In contrast, the well-conditioned primary atomizing air flow directed through the aerodynamic swirler vanes of the nozzle of FIG. 9B is delivered to the fuel sheet discharge at a substantially uniform velocity. Quantitatively, the average droplet size of the spray, as may be expressed by its Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD), can be reduced up to 50% or more.
As it is anticipated that certain changes may be made in the present invention without departing from the precepts herein involved, it is intended that all matter contained in the foregoing description shall be interpreted in as illustrative rather than in a limiting sense. All references cited herein are expressly incorporated by reference.

Showers and storms have been dropping heavy rain across the viewing area. For the most part the strongest of the storms have drifted to the southeast and rain showers will stay with everyone through about midnight. Overnight expect patchy fog to develop in low lying locations under mostly cloudy skies.
Sunday the isolated and scattered storms will once again impact most of the viewing area, with some of them strong much like today. Rain chances will stick around for the most part through the first part of the week before backing off as drier air arrives behind a front.
Highs for the next 7 days will stay in the lower 90s through the end of next week, however, the cooler weather doesn't look to stay for long. By the weekend it looks like another ridge begins to build in and we start warming back up into the middle 90s.

Chere Estrin: CEO of Estrin LegalEd in Los Angeles, CA
by Charisse Dengler
"On a day-to-day basis, I am responsible for designing and producing our seminars," Estrin said. "I research paralegal training needs throughout the country and come up with workshops that meet the needs of the elevating responsibilities of paralegals. I am also in charge of creating our brochures, newsletters, books, and publications. I search for excellent speakers, trainers, and authors. I get an opportunity to talk with paralegals worldwide. I've met paralegals in Europe, South America, Australia, and Hong Kong. It's a great job."
In addition, Estrin is in charge of maintaining marketing and business strategies that enable the company to continue to improve and advance in the marketplace. When asked what she enjoys most about her job, she said she likes being her own boss and the immense creative opportunities that come with that. "It's exhilarating," she said.
She also enjoys receiving feedback from paralegals across the world who have benefited from her seminars and resources.
"When attendees or students come up to me and thank me for a great seminar, I light up," she said. "Or when someone tells me they've read one of my books or articles and it changed their perspective or helped them through a difficult time. I learned that's what it's all about, and I've learned the real meaning of helping someone."
Although she admits that she sort of fell into the paralegal profession, Estrin is very happy with where it has taken her.
"I don't know of anyone who says, 'When I grow up, I want to be a paralegal.' That's like saying, 'When I grow up, I want to be an actuary,'" she said. "What happened was I was on the road with my theater company doing Broadway musical revues. I wanted to get off the road and settle down, so I applied for a paralegal job. I wasn't even sure what they did. The legal administrator I interviewed with just happened to have seen one of the shows I directed and produced and thought he would give me a shot at it. I stayed, and the rest is 'paralegal history.'"
Over the course of her career, Estrin has seen the paralegal profession grow in integrity and demand. She started out at a time when paralegals indexed documents on 3x5 note cards and were not taken too seriously; now attorneys expect to have at least one paralegal on their teams.
Estrin currently lives and works in Los Angeles, CA, with her husband. The twosome love to travel, especially to Europe and Hawaii, and Estrin also loves to go to the movies.
"Give me a good movie, a hankie, and a big bag of popcorn anytime," she said.
Her advice to aspiring paralegals is to put a lot of thought into the practice specialty they choose.
"It could be with you for the rest of your career," she said.

Daniel Santos Plotting His Comeback For Early 2013
By Rey Colon
Daniel Santos (32-4-1, 23KOs), a former world welterweight and junior middleweight champions, has been inactive since losing his 154-pound title to Yuri Foreman in 2009. Santos, 37, is considering a return to the ring in early 2013, according to source with knowledge of the details.
"The man is in great shape and has been training for the past month at Olympic Village in Bayamón. This is perhaps his last chance and he must be prepared. And if everything goes well, as expected, he should be fighting for a title, at middleweight, sometime next year. You know that Santos' career has had its ups and downs because he is an awkward southpaw and has also faced management problems but I think there is enough fuel for him to become a world champion again."

I know how to upload an image file on my WP server to create a url (Media) but not for a document available with a link for reading or saving...
Can you help me ?
Thank you in advance


text: Posted September 9, 2012 Probably should. Never thought I would be saying the run defense is better then the passing defense at this juncture. Everyone in the back seven other then Robey and McDonald needs to improve in a hurry. Isaiah Wiley failing his summer classes really hurt this team.... I hope they can get it together on D. I want to see them make a run at the title to send a "fug you" to the NCAA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James DeGale insists there is no chance of him making up with bitter rival George Groves once he has knocked him out in May's super-middleweight showdown in London.
DeGale is putting his British title on the line to fight Commonwealth champion Groves on the undercard of Nathan Cleverly's world title clash with Jurgen Brahmer at the O2 on May 21.
The pair have shared a long-running rivalry that stretches back to their amateur days at the Dale Youth Boxing Club in west London when Groves out-pointed DeGale in a 2006 bout which still irks DeGale to this day.
DeGale went on to outshine the 23-year-old after the fight, winning gold at the Beijing Olympics and taking the British title off Paul Smith as a professional, before sounding out Groves for a grudge match which was finally set up earlier this month.
Promotion and showmanship usually come hand in hand with boxing, but DeGale insists the animosity between the two is real - and anyone who saw the explosive press conference that launched the fight would find it hard to disagree.
Old friends Audley Harrison and David Haye seemingly kissed and made up despite the verbal jousting that preceded their one-sided bout, but DeGale insists his rivalry with Groves is so strong that it is on a par with the hostile relationship between Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank that accompanied their classic fights in the 1990s.
For that reason, DeGale will not be offering the hand of friendship to Groves if he delivers on his promise to knock him out in May's fight.
"I can't see me and ugly kid making up. After I knock him out I might shake his hand but after that I don't even want to hear that boy's name again," DeGale told Press Association Sport.
"This ain't acting. We genuinely don't like each other. The rivalry goes back years. He has lived half his life in my shadow.
"It's not messing around. In domestic fights people usually build it up as a grudge match but this is genuine. The background from when he beat me in the ABAs to when we were both trying to win a domestic title first as professionals... It's Benn v Eubank number two."
Groves, the much quieter of the duo, did not quite match the level of DeGale's insults during last month's press conference, and vowed to use his rival's barbs as to motivate him for the fight.
DeGale sees no reason why he should stop the war of words between the two though and insists it will not harm his chances of success.
"It won't affect my performance against him," the 25-year-old added.
"This is fun to me. All the stuff at the press conference, me bantering him and winding him up is all fun.
"I'll keep calling him ugly kid because that's what he is to me. He is ugly and he is a kid. It's a fact. It's reality.
"At the end of the day it will be just me and him in the ring."
Both fighters will enter the ring undefeated, with DeGale having recorded 10 victories since turning professional - two fewer than his younger rival.
DeGale is a big favourite to beat Groves given his impressive performances in dispatching Carl Dilks and Smith recently, and is confident that victory over Groves will be the first step on his journey to world domination.
"The future is bright for me," he said.
"When I turned professional I said the plan for me was to become a world champion by the end of 2012 but with the rate that I'm going at right now it could be by the end of 2011."

This year, I started using a "Simple and Elegant" one column, blogging theme from Automattic that I still REALLY like. It was launched on WordPress.com back in May 29, 2014 and later offered here on WordPress.org. The main reason that I like it is that its main column is MUCH WIDER than most of the other themes from Automattic. The Theme Designer had a particular idea in mind, which was "Simplicity and Elegance". To acquire that design and display, the developer had to cut back on "unneeded" options that got in the way of the design goal. This is NOT a slam on the developer (I still like and use the theme). It was a necessary decision to reach the targeted goal.
Sometimes when you chose a theme from Themes Directory, you will think of a way to use it that the original designer never contemplated. That is when Plugins fit in, and this plugin is an example of filling an end user's individual needs. My theme (Kelly) only came with One Primary Nav Menu. It was missing a "Social Links Menu" that other themes from Automattic seem to include: Sorbet , Edin , Intergalactic , Harmonic , and Minnow . SO, if you find a WordPress Theme that you really like; AND it is missing a "Social Links Menu" that other themes may already provide; THIS PLUGIN will add it back in with 4-5 options of Social Icon Libraries included. What more could you ask for?
Where have you been all my life?
Very easy to use: create a menu, add your desired link(s), name it and you are all set. It does not get any easier.
Plugin comes particularly handy with clients sites.
Thanks Chip!

Next week, actress Rose McGowan will be appearing on the big screen as Marique, a beautiful and deadly witch in director Marcus Nispel's Conan: The Barbarian. However, not too long ago, McGowan was set to headline her own swords-and-sandals epic spinning out of the world of Conan as the title character in Robert Rodriguez's Red Sonja. Rodriguez has said in the past that the movie never happened because of rights and financing issues, but McGowan revealed in a recent interview in support of Conan: The Barbarian that "massive nerve damage" in her arm ultimately prevented her from playing the "She-Devil with a Sword."
I had three surgeries on [my elbow] and they took part of my bone out. I was paralyzed, except for the ends of my fingers. And, over the course of a year, it got progressively worse. It was just massive nerve damage. So, if I hurt it again, there's nothing more they can do. So, something's that really sword-heavy, the odds of me getting hurt are pretty strong. I'll still do battle stuff. I love doing stunts, it's my favorite thing. I always get hurt, but I have a blast. But, I need to not tip the scales because paralysis isn't really worth it. Not worth the movie… It would have been dope. Honestly, I would have killed it. It is a pity.
She may be almost entirely unrecognizable, but yes, that is Rose McGowan rocking the porcelain skin, minimal leather outfit and, well, receding hairline in the trailer for Conan the Barbarian. She stars as the evil Marique, a powerful sorceress and the daughter of the ruthless Khalar Zym (Stephen Lang), Conan's (Jason Momoa) archenemy.
With the film's August 19th release on the horizon, McGowan hit San Diego Comic-Con to help spread the word. She dishes on all of the details including what it took to turn her into the character we see on screen, Marique's weapon of choice, her daddy issues, as well as a moment between her and Lang that had to be cut from the film, for the fear of pushing a testy issue too far.
Before wrapping up, we revisit the much-discussed possibility of her playing Red Sonja on the big screen. The outlook's been grim for quite a while and now McGowan 100% confirms it: She will not play Red Sonja. Hear all about that and, of course, McGowan's experience working on Conan the Barbarian in the video interview below.
Rose McGowan chats with the Blairing Out Show at the 6th Annual Johnny Ramone Tribute about Johnny, The Bride of Frankenstein, Red Sonja, Conan and her current make-up must haves. Rose also mentions that she has several producing gigs in the works! Be sure to check out the interview, it is a good one.
There seems to be a massive amount of rumors around Red Sonja at the moment. Pajiba reports that Nu Image/Millennium Films is changing directions on the film. The company announced in June of 2008 that Rose McGowan would star in the title role and that the film would be directed by Douglas Aarniokoski and produced by Robert Rodriguez.
Then last month, McGowan landed a role in Conan, also from Nu Image/Millennium Films, but not as Red Sonja leading to speculation that she was no longer on board. McGowan instead will play "an evil half-human/half-witch." In addition to McGowan, Aarniokoski is apparently off the project as well and they are looking for another writer to take a pass at David N. White's script.
Pajiba also reports that Megan Fox has been offered the role of Red Sonja. However, Megan's publicist tells Moviefone the report is "not true."
Rose herself responded the following on her Twitter:
It's fine. It was Conan or that RT @GossipGuy556677: @rosemcgowan Fans Waited For Her to Be Red Sonja Since 2008. & Now Megan Fox Come and Take the Role!!! thats so UNFAIR!!!
So it seems that Rose is off the Red Sonja project, which is very disappointing as us fans have been following and eagerly awaiting the project for years.
This update shall conclude our coverage of Red Sonja, unless there will be an official announcement in the future, reporting that the film is back in production with Rose McGowan on board.
When the news broke this morning that actress Rose McGowan had joined the cast of Marcus Nispel's upcoming Conan movie as "an evil half-human/half-witch," one question seemed to be on the minds of fans: What about Red Sonja?
Originally tagged to play the female barbarian back in 2008, McGowan reported in August 2009 that Red Sonja had been delayed. The character was rumored to make a cameo in Conan, since she made her first appearance in Conan the Barbarian comics, but today's casting news certainly makes such a cameo difficult — if not altogether impossible.
Fortunately, MTV News checked in with Red Sonja producer Robert Rodriguez during the recent South By Southwest Film Festival to find out where the project is at these days.
Read the full article »
According to Variety, Rose McGowan is joining Marcus Nispel's (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 2003), Friday the 13th, 2009) Conan revamp! I am excited Rose is announced to a new project but I already feel this is gonna create some confusion for some people.
She is set to be playing an evil half-human/half-witch in the movie, not Red Sonja, whom we've all eagerly been waiting for since we were teased with the Red Sonja imagery back in 2008. Red Sonja first appeared in Conan the Barbarian and while the character will not take part in the new film, it's kinda cool Rose will somehow get into this Conan-universe. But what does this mean for Red Sonja?
Back in August of 2009, Rose said this:
To clarify press reports: Red Sonja is delayed. I pulled out of doing it in '09. Not permanently. Hopefully will follow Conan.
I am still contracted to do it Red Sonja. Hopefully Filming in '10 not '09
To clarify press reports: Red Sonja is delayed. I pulled out of doing it in '09. Not permanently. Hopefully will follow Conan.
I am still contracted to do it Red Sonja. Hopefully Filming in '10 not '09
Only time will tell the fate of Sonja. I guess if Conan succeeds at the box office a Red Sonja film (albeit that new character confusion) might be a smart move. But if the film doesn't, well we just might be hearing the swan song, like we did with Barbarella. It definitely won't be being released this year and given our run of luck with the stand stilled films these few years, I'd highly doubt filming either – unless by some chance later in the year. But I'm not an expert, just giving my guess. We'll of course research and let you know if we find out any other details!
At this time last year, Rose McGowan told us how excited she was to be kicking butt and working under the direction of her fiancé Robert Rodriguez in the she-devil comic book adaptation Red Sonja, but it turns out a serious injury has brought the production to a standstill.
"I had wrist and elbow surgery and they took part of my elbow out. I had really bad nerve damage from doing stunts – I do a lot of my own stunts," McGowan recently told Tarts. "I could no longer use my arm, but now I can hold a fork and drive so we're working our way up. It'll probably be another six months of rehab, but it's the price you pay for being really limber and being able to do back flips!"
Rose McGowan announced on Twitter that she will be in Iowa to film indie movie Dylan's Wake. Filming starts August 31. Here's what she said:
Breaking news!! I'm heading to Iowa to film a movie called Dylan's Wake. Very well written indie. my co-star is Nick Stahl – so talented. directed by Omar Naim who did The Final Cut, which I loved
Congratulations to Rose! I believe I'm speaking for all the fans when I say that I am super excited about her announcement!
She also posted the following regarding Red Sonja:
To clarify press reports: Red Sonja is delayed. I pulled out of doing it in '09. Not permanently. Hopefully will follow Conan.
I am still contracted to do it Red Sonja. Hopefully Filming in '10 not '09
To clarify press reports: Red Sonja is delayed. I pulled out of doing it in '09. Not permanently. Hopefully will follow Conan.
I am still contracted to do it Red Sonja. Hopefully Filming in '10 not '09
From Rose's Twitter:
Just this once i'll address questions about Red Sonja & others; i was meant to do in '08. Major personal &private; reasons I pulled out. Starting 2 want to work again. Sometimes real life fucking sucks. That's all. God bless us survivors.
We hope things are better for her now. All the best to Rose!
The 'She-devil with a sword- last seen on out screens as Brigitte Nielsen in Richard Fleischer's shonky in out multiplexes as soon as we thought. Set to be directed by Douglas Aarniokoski and star Rose McGowan, with Robert Rodriguez producing, the project is now on hiatus.
"Because of certain issues and the economy, we had to change our plan a bit," admits executive producer Joe Gatta, who's also producing the Conan reboot."It's frustrating because we thought we'd make the movie last year, before Conan."
Gatta is still confident Red Sonja will go before cameras in 2010, and he can confirm this will be an origin stoy that ignores Fleisher's shaky stub at the flame-haired warrioress and goes straight to the source: Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith's comic-book character, despite the fact that she started out as a Conan comic-book spin-off.
Gatta is confident of the character's stansalone appeal. "She's beautiful and sexy, and she kicks ass! Although you have to be really careful so it's not campy. You want to make it real. Make her convicingly tough. And I think we have a script that's cracked it."

If Neils Miller doesn't have a statue in Appleton, Wisconsin, he should. You'll be hard pressed to find someone who has had a larger impact on the welding industry than Mr. Miller. Back in 1929, he saw a need for a small, affordable arc welder that would operate on the type of electricity readily available in rural Wisconsin. Using American ingenuity, he cobbled together scrap metal, core and coil materials and hammered out that first welder in his basement. Six short years later, Miller Electric Mfg. Co. produced an industry-changing industrial welder and the rest is history.
Throughout the 40's, Miller's machines powered war efforts in the shipyards and defense plants. In the 50's, Miller played a key role in the construction of most major planes, jets, fighters and missiles. Companies like Boeing, Cessna, Lockheed, Douglas all used Miller machines in their factories. The 1970's brought the introduction of the Millermatic machines; the first power source with a built-in wire feeder.
Today, Miller Electric continues their dominance in the marketplace with machines like the Millermatic 211 and the Dynasty 200 DX, Auto-darkening welding helmets, and the Diversion 180 AC/DC TIG Welder. Miller's full line of welding machines and welding accessories give their loyal customers plenty of reasons to "Bleed Blue."

Mowed Down in Motown
I Millwould've yanked Kevin in the 8th. You?
Well, you were warned.
Actually, the Texas Rangers played decent baseball in Detroit this week despite a three-game sweep. Just not so sure they played smart baseball. Especially in this afternoon's 4-3 loss to the Tigers, their franchise-record 11th consecutive defeat in Detroit.
Nursing a 3-3 tie in the bottom of the 8th, Kevin Millwood allowed a two-out RBI single to Miguel Cabrera on his 119th pitch. The good news is that for the first time in a long time the Rangers trust their starters. The bad news is they don't yet have a no-brainer set-up man.
Then in the 9th, needing a run to tie it, manager Ron Washington grew conservative. After watching his team steal five bases - including third base three times with two out - Elvis Andrus sat on first during the suddenly struggling Ian Kinsler's (in a 3-of-25 slump) strikeout. A steal there, and Andrus scores on David Murphy's one-out single.

Instead, with runners at the corners, Michael Young (who left six men on base) grounded sharply into a game-ending double-play. Inning. Game. Series. Season. At least in Detroit. The Rangers won't visit Detroit again this year unless it's the playoffs.
And that's a good thing.
The Rangers are 0-6 in Detroit and 23-11 against the rest of the world.
Some nauseating, lingering questions as Texas heads to Houston ...
*Should Washington have yanked Millwood in the 8th? What did Millwood think: Here.
*Should the Rangers have been running in the 9th?
*Do you still think the Rangers are magical?

Kodak today declared drupa 2016 a resounding success, having reached its sales target on day 7 and 181% of target on the final day of the show.

Capitalize on the Growth in Packaging
The packaging market is attractive to print service providers in many ways; it's one of the fastest growing markets, and it serves as a hedge against the decline in traditional print as more and more content moves to the web. As attractive as the packaging market is, it comes with a unique set of challenges. It demands advanced printing techniques, managing more frequent, shorter runs as brand owners use packaging for customization and targeting, and it demands high quality output as brand owners rely more on packaging to sell from the shelf. Harnessing these complexities through automation allows PSPs to capitalize on this growth and differentiate themselves from competition. The KODAK PRINERGY Workflow platform of software enables PSPs to transform complexity into competitive advantage through solutions like PRINERGY Workflow and PANDORA Step-and-Repeat that reduce manual touch points, errors and cost. At drupa, Kodak is taking automation to the next level - demonst

Absolutely love the look of these buttons but I can't seem to get the counters to display (particularly for FB and Twitter). They were visible recently but now they show "0". Any ideas?
Absolutely love the look of these buttons but I can't seem to get the counters to display (particularly for FB and Twitter). They were visible recently but now they show "0". Any ideas?
Would really love to use these, but can't get the counter to work. Problems with wordpress 3.6?
Well, for some reason, I reinstalled this plugin after a few days and all the counters are working. Not sure how that happened. I installed/reinstalled several times before and that had no effect. If anyone else has this problem, try installing again after some time and see if it helps :p
For me only google plus was working.
(this was on a post that has had 300K views.)
I'll give your solution a try after some time passes. Definitely weird.
Anyone else had experience getting the post counts working?
Same problem on our site: http://goo.gl/GvJA8v Only Google+ counters are working. I'm keeping my old counters [Hupso] on [along with Simple Share] for a while. Looks dumb but I don't want visitors to think no one is sharing our stuff! I love this plugin and hope there is a fix for the zero counts. Thank you for all your work - I appreciate it.
Check if the php directive allow_url_fopen is active.
If not active it will only show 0.
I had the problem.

I had the problem and I solved it that way
I used the following way to test if allow_url_fopen is enabled,
and indeed my allow_url_fopen is already enabled:
So I must need some other fix :-(
All worked on the last post (last week). Only google+ works on today's.
Attached you'll find the test I build to verify twitter was working fine.
function getTwitterShareCount($urlCurrentPage) {
// get results from twitter and return the number of shares
$htmlTwitterShareDetails = file_get_contents('http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=' . $urlCurrentPage);
$arrTwitterShareDetails = json_decode($htmlTwitterShareDetails, true);
$intTwitterShareCount = $arrTwitterShareDetails['count'];
return ($intTwitterShareCount ) ? $intTwitterShareCount : '0';
echo '
';
echo '
'.getTwitterShareCount('http://demomentsomtres.com/catala/');
echo '
';
Put it in a folder of your web server and try to call it.
Check previously your server is configured to show warnings.
Hope it works
You can do the same test using the other functions inside lib folder of this component.
I'm thinking it might be the cache plugin I'm using. I have disabled it—we'll see if it was the culprit.
It was the cache plugin.
I'm getting the "Only-Google-Plus-Works" problem, and have no caching plugins installed.
Thanks @ Marc. I had the same "Only-Google-Plus-Works" problem and your solution was right. "allow_url_fopen" has to be active! After changing, everything work fine!
