To assess the significant physics associated with the increase of ALR and configuration ratio of the nozzle tip in pneumatic swirling flows, comprehensive observations using a 3-D PDPA system were experimentally carried out. Profiles of mean velocities, turbulence intensities, SMD variations, and correlations between droplet size and turbulence components were quantitatively acquired. As discussed in a previous literature, axisymmetric swirl angle of $30^{circ}$ is selected for this investigation because of its strong turbulence levels in the flowfield and finer droplet disintegrations. Various ALRs (Air-to-Liquid Mass Ratio) as well as the length-to-diameter ratios of nozzle tip as parameters were chosen. Due to the complex interactions in swirling flows under these variables, this experimental observation will be of fundamental importance to the understanding of turbulence structures. From the observations, it indicated that in creasing the ALR causes the spray development to be positively fluctuated on the atomization in both axial and tangential RMS velocities. Also, it can be concluded that the SMD decreases continuously with increase of ALR, substantiating the fact that the fluctuations are inversely proportional to the SMD variation. Meanwhile, the spray behavior is characteristic with a reduction of length-to-diameter ratio; smaller the configuration ratio, the higher the turbulence intensities and smaller SMD variations in the flowfield.
