Injector flow dynamics and primary breakup processes are known to play a pivotal role in determining combustion and emissions in d...

The evaporation of a binary liquid mixture of monatomic species into near vacuum has been investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. It has been assumed that atomic interaction forces can be derived by Lennard-Jones potentials. Results are presented about surface composition changes induced by evaporation, the shape of the distribution functions of evaporating atoms. Estimates of evaporati...

Abstract An effective Lagrangian Planar Interferometric Tracking (PIT) processor is proposed to track the size and path of multiple droplets, with spray droplet diameters (20–150 µm) volumetric concentrations ( $$\approx$$ ≈ 300 drops/cm $$^3$$ 3 ) consiste...
