title = "A concept for simultaneous high-frequency actuation of liquid spray characteristics",
abstract = "Herein, we propose the Synchronously Actuated Response Atomizer (SARA) concept to address three target needs in the area of thermo-acoustic research in liquid-fueled systems; sufficiently broad frequency response to span the flame's bandwidth without encountering significant actuator dynamics, independent actuation of various spray characteristics thought to be relevant to the flame response, reduced size and cooling requirementsmaking it practical to implement the device in a research combustor. We propose physical mechanisms by which a device might be able to control three characteristics at high frequency (ideally as high as 1kHz); mass flow, droplet distribution, and cone angle. These mechanisms are described by simple models and validated in low frequency experiments. The details of the high-frequency design are also provided.",
