Rotary atomizers are utilized in many industrial areas owing to the advantages that it can form small and even droplets or particles with narrow band of droplet spectrum. However, there are not sufficient research to understand the atomization mechanism of rotary atomizers. In particular, spray imbalance of horizontal rotary atomizers with azimuthal direction was confirmed through the recent research. In this study, the experimental research was carried out to investigate the uneven distribution of the liquid inside the rotary atomizers. When liquid supplied to the inside of rotary atomizer, the liquid was unevenly distributed due to the wall shear stress and the gravitational effect.
