Zusammenfassung:A dust injection system for engine testing and related methods are provided. The system includes a carrier pipe that defines a fluid flow path between an inlet and an outlet and an injection nozzle disposed within the carrier pipe between the inlet and the outlet. The injection nozzle receives a slurry comprising dust particulates and a carrier liquid, and injects the dust particulates and the carrier liquid into the fluid flow path. The carrier liquid is atomized and evaporates in the fluid flow path prior to the outlet to enable dried version of the dust particulates to exit the outlet.
