Spray morphology has a significant impact on the effectiveness of DWI and the study of spray characteristics in hydrogen/oxygen/argon premixed combustion atmosphere is critical. Based on a three-dimensional computational model built by the test bench data, this paper explores the DWI characteristics within hydrogen/oxygen/argon premixed combustion atmosphere and the effect of DWI on the combustion process. The results show that as the ambient temperature increases, the ambient density decreases and the SMD enlarges. The difference in spray morphology is small in the high-temperature and high-pressure environments after combustion. As the ambient pressure elevates, both the jet SMD and penetration reduce, and the evaporated mass improves. In addition, the majority of the water spray in contact with flame will evaporate rapidly due to the high temperature. Some of the liquid water on the outside of spray will evaporate owing to the heat, while the remaining portion will crack into OH reactive groups.
