We investigate the dynamics of two immiscible fluids in a cross-junction via three-
dimensional numerical simulations using the volume of fluid approach to track the dispersed …

Efficient and clean combustion of jet fuels highly relies on their spray characteristics. Prior
studies have shown that the flow blurring (FB) injector developed in the recent decade could …

Polymer microfibers are ubiquitous structures across virtually all technological fields. Their
applications include, for instance, filter media, tissue regeneration, wound healing and …

Superheated liquid jets disintegrate into numerous droplets when released into the ambient
with lower saturated pressure, driven by thermal nonequilibrium induced flashing and the …

The oblique collision of two unequal-sized liquid droplets in a gaseous environment is
investigated numerically. It is found that the asymmetry in the flow field arising due to …

Jet fuels with various properties are desirable for different operational or environmental
advantages, necessitating fuel-flexible technology. For example, JP-5 (A-3) and alternative …

Clean and efficient combustion of liquid fuels depends on spray fineness that aids fast fuel
vaporization and better fuel–air mixing. Swirl-burst (SB) atomizers generate fine droplets at …

Glycerol, a byproduct of biodiesel, has moderate energy but high viscosity, making clean
combustion challenging. Quickly evaporating fine fuel sprays mix well with air and burn …

This review summarizes the state of the art of flow blurring atomization, focusing both on
fundamental aspects of this atomization mode as well as key observations made from …

In industrial-scale operations, wet electrostatic precipitators (WESPs) are used to minimize
particulate matter, employing atomizers such as single-fluid and twin-fluid atomizers (TFAs) …
