the spray characteristics of the fuel greatly influence emissions from diesel engines. spray development plays a vital role in improving the combustion and emission characteristics of fuel because it directly affects the air- fuel mixture formation. the spray characteristics of fuel mainly depend on fuel injection process, fuel density, fuel viscosity, ambient pressure and temperature. among th...

A computational analysis of flow in simplex fuel atomizers using the arbitrary-Lagrangian–Eulerian method is presented. It is well established that the geometry of an atomizer plays an important role in governing its performance. We have investigated the effect on atomizer performance of four geometric parameters, namely, inlet slot angle, spin chamber convergence angle, trumpet angle, and trum...

In recent days, current research is going in alternative fuels due to increase in global warming and pollution in all over the world and also very stringent emission norms. In this way, the study on spray progress plays an important role in improving complete combustion and emission of fuel, because it is directly affects the air-fuel mixture formation. The macroscopic spray characteristics of ...

the present study is concerned with measuring and simulating soot formation and combustion in turbulent liquid fuel spray flames. soot concentrations inside the combustor are measured by filter paper technique. the simulation is based on the solution of the fully-coupled conservation equations for turbulent flow, chemical species kinetic modeling, fuel droplet evaporation and combustion and soo...

INTRODUCTION ABSTRACT Particle depositional studies from nasal sprays are important for efficient drug delivery. The main influences on deposition involve the nasal cavity geometry and the nasal spray device of which its parameters are controlled by the product design. It is known that larger particle sizes (>>10μm) at a flow rate of 333 ml/s impact in the anterior portion of the nose, leaving ...

In this computational research, the separate and simultaneous impacts of diesel direct injection timing, fuel spraying cone angle, and hydrogen gas addition on combustion characteristics, output emissions, and performance in a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine was studied. In order to conduct the simulations, valid and reliable models for combustion, break-up, and for turbulence wa...

The current study focuses on comprehensive fuel spray modeling and its effects on chamber acoustics in combustion dynamics simulations. The fuel spray is modeled using an Eulerian-Lagrangian approach describing the atomizer internal flow, primary atomization, and secondary atomization processes. To anchor the fuel spray model, a series of experiments has been conducted on the fuel atomizer with...
