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 …

Recent advances in modeling primary atomization in order to enable accurate practical-
scale jet spray simulation are reviewed. Since the Eulerian–Lagrangian method is most …

This paper implements a coupled approach to integrate the internal nozzle flow and the
ensuing fuel spray using a Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method in the finite-volume framework. A …

The influence of internal nozzle flow characteristics over macroscopic spray development is
studied experimentally for two different nozzle geometries and three fuels. The …

A computational and experimental study was performed to characterize the flow within a
gasoline injector and the ensuing sprays. The computations included the effects of …

The influence of internal nozzle flow characteristics over the evaporative spray development
is studied experimentally for two different nozzle geometries and three different fuels. This is …

Combustion in direct-injection diesel engines occurs in a lifted, turbulent diffusion flame
mode. Numerous studies indicate that the combustion and emissions in such engines are …

This paper implements a coupled approach to integrate the internal nozzle flow and the
ensuing fuel spray using a Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method in the CONVERGE CFD software …

Spray atomization has a key impact on the combustion and emission performances of the
engines. It involves a highly dynamic two-phase flow process consisting of two distinct …

Abstract By coupling the Wu-Faeth (WF) turbulent primary breakup theory with the classical
Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) and Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) aerodynamic instability theories, the …
