Over 99% of the observable universe is made of plasma. About 71% of the planet we live on
is covered by liquid. Yet, the interaction between both states of matter does not occur so …

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 …

Rocket engines and high-power new generations of gas-turbine jet engines and diesel
engines oftentimes involve the injection of one or more reactants at subcritical temperatures …

Whilst the physics of both classical evaporation and supercritical fluid mixing are reasonably
well characterized and understood in isolation, little is known about the transition from one to …

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

Internal combustion engines running on liquid fuels will remain the dominant prime movers
for road and air transportation for decades, probably for most of this century. The world's …

A theory that explains the operating pressures where liquid injection processes transition
from exhibiting classical two-phase spray atomization phenomena to single-phase diffusion …

We present and evaluate a two-phase model for Eulerian large-eddy simulations (LES) of
liquid-fuel injection and mixing at high pressure. The model is based on cubic equations of …

A numerical investigation of mixing processes between an injected fuel (an n-alkane) and a
chamber inert gas (nitrogen) was carried out for high-pressure fuel injection. The objective is …
