Biodiesels as renewable fuels are important in approaching low-carbon transportation. One
critical challenge associated with biodiesel production is the utilization of crude glycerol, an …

This article reviews published literature on the characteristics of a liquid jet injected
transversally into a subsonic gaseous crossflow. The review covers the following aspects:(і) …

Efficient and clean combustion of jet fuels highly relies on their spray characteristics. Prior
studies have shown that the flow blurring (FB) injector developed in the recent decade could …

Polymer microfibers are ubiquitous structures across virtually all technological fields. Their
applications include, for instance, filter media, tissue regeneration, wound healing and …

Previous studies have demonstrated that the two-phase swirl burst (SB) injector incurred
ultra-fast and fine atomization, rather than a breaking jet core/film of conventional air …

Clean and efficient combustion of liquid fuels depends on spray fineness that aids fast fuel
vaporization and better fuel–air mixing. Swirl-burst (SB) atomizers generate fine droplets at …

In order to understand the reasons for the apparent benefits of using a flow-blurring (FB)
atomizer in a combustion system, it is necessary to first examine fundamental spray …

Prior studies have indicated that the flow blurring (FB) injection generates fine sprays, hence
clean and premixed combustion of fuels with a wide range of viscosity, though the increase …

Glycerol, a byproduct of biodiesel, has moderate energy but high viscosity, making clean
combustion challenging. Quickly evaporating fine fuel sprays mix well with air and burn …

This review summarizes the state of the art of flow blurring atomization, focusing both on
fundamental aspects of this atomization mode as well as key observations made from …
