# Industrial Specification: Spray System (Nozzles &amp; Manifold)

## 1. Technical Definition
A component assembly that precisely distributes and atomizes liquid binder or coating solutions onto material within a rotary granulation drum.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **3.5-8.0 bar (50-116 psi) at 0.5-2.0 L/min flow rate per nozzle**. Failure boundary: **Cavitation occurs at vapor pressure threshold of 0.023 bar absolute (0.33 psi) at 25°C, causing nozzle erosion; mechanical failure at 12.0 bar (174 psi) due to manifold yield strength of 275 MPa (ASTM A106 Grade B)**, Mechanism: **Cavitation-induced erosion from Bernoulli principle: pressure drop below liquid vapor pressure causes bubble formation and implosion at nozzle orifice (0.5-1.0 mm diameter), generating localized microjets exceeding 1000 MPa**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |

| f | Friction Factor | Engineering Constant |
| L | Pipe Length | Engineering Constant |
| v | Velocity | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Particulate contamination exceeding 25 μm in binder solution (ISO 4406 18/16/13) | 8 | Nozzle orifice clogging with 80% flow reduction within 15 minutes | Install dual 10 μm absolute filters (316L stainless steel) with differential pressure monitoring at 0.7 bar (10 psi) trigger |
| Thermal cycling from 25°C to 85°C during CIP (Clean-in-Place) procedures | 8 | Stress corrosion cracking in 316L stainless steel manifold at chloride concentration &gt;50 ppm | Replace with duplex 2205 stainless steel (PREN 35) and implement controlled temperature ramp rate of 2°C/min during thermal cycles |

- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are recommended for spray systems handling corrosive chemical binders?
**A**: For corrosive chemical applications, we recommend 316L stainless steel for structural components, PTFE (Teflon) coatings for corrosion resistance, and ceramic nozzles for maximum durability against abrasive solutions.

### Q: How does the spray system ensure uniform coating in rotary granulation drums?
**A**: Our precision-engineered manifold (distribution header) evenly distributes liquid to multiple spray nozzles that atomize the solution into fine droplets, ensuring consistent coverage across all material surfaces within the rotating drum.

### Q: What maintenance is required for chemical manufacturing spray systems?
**A**: Regular inspection of nozzle orifices for clogging, checking PTFE seals for wear, and verifying manifold pressure distribution. Stainless steel components require standard cleaning protocols, while ceramic nozzles offer extended service life with minimal maintenance.
