The transformation of a liquid propellant into a semi-solid gel state paves way for
energetically improved, reliable, safer, and possibly green futuristic propellant for rocket and …

Spray drying and electrospraying are well-established drying processes that already have
proven their value in the pharmaceutical field. However, there is currently still a lack of …

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

Atomization and droplet dynamics of a gas-liquid two-phase jet were investigated
experimentally, with the particular interest in the influence of mass loading ratio (the ratio of …

Droplet breakup and collision dynamics of an internal-mixing twin-fluid (air-assisted) spray
were investigated experimentally. Time-resolved spray morphological evolutions were …

Spray drying is a well established and widely applied technology to manufacture powders
for a wide range of applications. However, the production of powders with the desired …

Abstract The use of Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) with bio-lubricants has been
extensively studied in aerospace sustainable manufacturing. Enhanced MQL technologies …

The breakup of droplets in a high-speed air stream is investigated experimentally and
theoretically. This study is based on experiments conducted by exposing pendant droplets to …

This paper describes a collaborative theoretical and experimental research effort to
investigate both the atomization dynamics of non-Newtonian liquids as well as the …

To investigate the influence of swirling air flow field on the spray characteristics and the
droplet behaviors of the swirl cup airblast fuel injector, a single swirler cup and a double …
