Sprays are among the most intellectually challenging and practically important topics in fluid
mechanics. This paper reviews needs, milestones, challenges, and a broad array of …

The second edition of this long-time bestseller provides a framework for designing and
understanding sprays for a wide array of engineering applications. The text contains …

Multiphase flows, defined as a discrete phase in a continuous fluid phase, are found in many
natural, industrial, and consumer flows, from rainfall and avalanches to petroleum …

This paper focuses on the analysis of low-pressure regions inside fuel injector nozzles,
where fuel vapor formation (strictly referred to as cavitation, or vaporous cavitation) and …

Cavitation plays a significant role in high pressure diesel injectors. However, cavitation is
difficult to measure under realistic conditions. X-ray phase contrast imaging has been used …

In this article, a fully compressible two-phase flow model combined with a multi-component
real-fluid phase equilibrium solver is proposed for cavitation modeling. The model is able to …

Liquid sprays play a key role in many engineering processes, including, but not limited to,
food processing, coating and painting, 3D printing, fire suppression, agricultural production …

Cavitation inception is generally determined by the tensile strengths of liquids. Investigations
on the tensile strength of water, which is essential in many fields, will help understand the …

High-speed X-ray phase-contrast imaging of the cavitating flow developing within an
axisymmetric throttle orifice has been conducted using high-flux synchrotron radiation. A …

Hydraulic flip is a common phenomenon that occurs in a short injector nozzle with a
contraction flow which results in a separation flow without a wall reattachment. This …
