TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of ignition, and particularly relates to a three-component needle bolt rotational flow torch igniter. BACKGROUND
[0002] The torch igniter generates high-temperature combustion gas by burning, and then ignites larger combustion equipment, and is widely applied in liquid rocket engines, gas generators and combustion heaters. The combustion medium of the torch igniter is divided into fuel and oxidizer. The fuel is various, and is divided into gas and liquid. The gas is mainly hydrogen and methane, and the liquid is mainly carbon-hydrogen fuel such as alcohol and kerosene. The oxidizer is generally oxygen and air.
[0003] No matter what kind of oxidizer or fuel, it is injected into the combustion chamber through the injector, and then mixed and burned. Different injectors are suitable for different combustion medium types and torch igniter working conditions. The gas propellant generally adopts straight-hole or annular-slit injection, and the liquid propellant generally adopts straight-hole or centrifugal injection. After the liquid propellant is injected, it needs to go through atomization and mixing before participating in combustion, and the atomization quality directly affects the working performance of the torch igniter. It is found in actual use that the gas and liquid injected through the straight-hole or annular-slit injection interact with each other, and it is difficult to obtain good atomization effect, which leads to low flame temperature of the torch igniter, and even cannot successfully ignite, directly affecting the flame temperature and ignition success rate of the torch igniter. In addition, the reliable ignition of the torch igniter by using the spark plug requires that the mixing ratio of the fuel and the oxidizer is within a suitable range. Similarly, the reliable ignition of the torch igniter in the form of double components also requires that the mixing ratio of the fuel and the oxidizer is within a suitable range.
