This review concerns recent progress in primary atomization modeling. The numerical
approaches based on direct simulation are described first. Although direct numerical …

The production of a liquid spray can be summarized as the succession of the following three
steps; the liquid flow ejection, the primary breakup mechanism and the secondary breakup …

Primary atomization of liquid injected at high speed into still air is investigated to elucidate
physical processes by direct numerical simulation. With sufficient grid resolution, ligament …

Because of the importance of multiphase flows in a wide variety of industries, including
power, petroleum, and numerous processing industries, an understanding of the behavior …

Detailed coverage of advanced combustion topics from the author of Principles of
combustion, Second Edition Turbulence, turbulent combustion, and multiphase reacting …

Atomization and mixing of sprays are key parameters to successfully describe and predict
combustion in direct-injection engines. Understanding these processes at the conditions …

The Multiphase Flow Handbook, Second Edition is a thoroughly updated and reorganized
revision of the late Clayton Crowe's work, and provides a detailed look at the basic concepts …

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of cavitating flow on the diesel fuel
atomization characteristics in nozzles of different length to width (L/W) ratios. In order to …

A computational fluid dynamics cavitation model based on the Eulerian–Lagrangian
approach and suitable for hole-type diesel injector nozzles is presented and discussed. The …

Cavitation and turbulence inside a diesel injector play a critical role in primary spray
breakup and development processes. The study of cavitation in realistic injectors is …
