    Abstract
    The swirl effervescent spray angle characterizes the spray dispersity. Various parameters were investigated to observe their relation to the spray angle; however, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) named Box-Behnken Design (BBD) was used as an approach to reduce the number of experimental runs and formulate an empirical model. The effect of three independent variables (swirl vane angle, gas volume flow rate, and discharge orifice diameter) on the spray angle was investigated. An empirical model was developed and verified. It was found that geometrical variables (swirl vane angle & discharge orifice diameter) are the most influential variables in characterizing a spray angle emanating from a swirl effervescent atomizer. The obtained results are important for the in-depth understanding of the swirl effervescent atomization mechanics.
