Atomizing nozzle is a crucial part of spray device. And it is widely applied in many fields such as agricultural spraying, plant cooling and dust suppression. Moreover, the atomizing performance of nozzle has a great influence on the size and velocity of droplet, and the flow distribution. In order to improve the atomizing performance of the supersonic atomizing nozzle, atomizing principle of the supersonic atomizing nozzle is analyzed in this paper, and it is found that the velocity difference of air phase and water phase has a great effect on the atomizing performance. The spool structure of the atomizing nozzle is changed according to the supersonic principle of Laval nozzle when it is tapered before.

A three-dimensional (3D) geometry model of Laval-style spool is built, supersonic can be achieved while the air pass through the nozzle, and velocity distributions law of the nozzle flow field is obtained by using computational fluid dynamics software Fluent. Furthermore, a test bench is built for atomization and the atomizing testing is carried out. The atomizing effect of nozzle is analyzed and compared before and after the spool structure being changed, and the atomizing performance influence rule of Laval-style atomizing nozzle is studied under different operational parameters. The numerical simulation results show that the velocity within most parts of the nozzle can reach supersonic and the velocity difference of air phase and water phase is significantly increased. In addition, the results of atomization testing indicate that the change of spool structure and the operational parameters have a great influence on atomizing performance, and the L
