Abstract: The effervescent atomization of viscoelastic liquids is reported. A total of 23 fluids, formulated from a 60wt% glycerine/40wt% water solvent to which were added varying concentrations (0.001–0.5wt%) ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to develop a computational model that accurately describes the dynamic behavior of a non-Newtonian power-law film formed after a drop impinges on a flat surface. ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to study the effects of increased ambient pressure (up to 6.89MPa) and increased nozzle pressure drop (up to 2.8MPa) on the cone angles for sprays ...

Abstract: The influence of hydrogen addition on the burning rates of kerosine sprays in air is studied experimentally. Flame speeds are measured as a function of fuel drop size, equivalence ratio, and ...

Abstract: Global emissions of NOx in a liquid-fueled lean-premixed tubular combustor with a tubular premixer operating under atmospheric pressure are studied experimentally. The effects of equivalence ratio, ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to examine the behavior of swirling supercritical hydrocarbon fuel (SCF) jets injected into nitrogen environments whose temperatures and pressures exceeded ...

Abstract: This study reports the atomization behavior of coal-water slurries (CWS) at conditions typical of a gas turbine combustor. Slurry atomization characteristics were determined for a plain-jet airblast ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to develop an experimentally verified computational model that accurately predicts evolution of shear-thinning liquid jets. A secondary objective was to investigate ...

Abstract: The relationship between atomizing gas molecular weight and spray mean drop size, Rosin-Rammler distribution parameter, and number averaged drop velocity is reported for a low mass flowrate ...
