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 …

Diesel engine performance and emissions are strongly coupled with fuel atomization and
spray processes, which in turn are strongly influenced by injector flow dynamics. Modern …

Injector flow dynamics and primary breakup processes are known to play a pivotal role in
determining combustion and emissions in diesel engines. In the present study, we examine …

Performance and emission characteristics of compression ignition engines depend strongly
on inner nozzle flow and spray behavior. These processes control the fuel air mixing, which …

Ever increasing energy requirements, environmental concerns and energy security needs
are strongly influencing engine researchers to consider renewable biofuels as alternatives …

The liquid jet from a round orifice during the transient start-up and steady mass flux periods
of a high pressure injector is studied via Navier-Stokes and level-set computations. Via post …

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 …

This paper deals with the influence of flow regime (laminar, transition or turbulent) on the
internal flow behavior, and how it affects the spray development in diesel nozzles. In …

Ultra-fast X-ray velocimetry measurements were taken to measure velocities and spatial
positions of individual abrasive particles within the solid–liquid–gaseous three-phase flow of …

The start of injection (SOI) transition processes present challenges for diesel spray
combustion simulations by computational fluid dynamics (CFD). In the previous studies …
