Over the past decades, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) using aqueous urea sprays as
ammonia precursor has become the prevalent technique for NO x emission control in mobile …

The environmental, economic, and energy problems of the modern world motivate the
development of alternative fuel technologies. Multifuel technology can help reduce the …

As a new type of nozzle, the internal mixing air atomizing nozzle has been widely used in
the field of dust reduction via spraying. In this study, the effect of water supply pressure on …

Puffing and micro-explosion processes in composite water/fuel (kerosene, Diesel fuel and
rapeseed oil) droplets are investigated experimentally and numerically, using the recently …

The explosive breakup of liquid, emulsion, and slurry droplets enables a several-fold
increase of their evaporation surface area. This effect reduces the energy and time required …

The main advantages of air-assisted spray are its high-quality atomization at low injection
pressures and insensitivity to the viscosity of atomized liquid. In this study, the droplet size …

The disintegration of drops of liquids, suspensions, solutions, emulsions, and fuels is one of
the most effective ways to enhance heating and evaporation. However, in some cases, the …

The influence of the ambient pressure on the breakup process is investigated by means of
PIV and shadowgraphy in the configuration of a planar prefilming airblast atomizer. The …

Microexplosion and ignition characteristics of biodiesel/ethanol blends were studied by
suspending single droplets on fibers in a tubular oven at different ambient conditions. The …

The well defined atomization of liquid fuels plays a key role in the combustion process of
civil jet engines, in particular for minimizing toxic emissions. Presently, the breakup …
