Syngas is an intermediate step towards the transition from carbon-based to hydrogen-based
fuels, promoted by the emerging concerns about climate change and damages to the …

Recent developments in modelling the heating and evaporation of fuel droplets are
reviewed, and unsolved problems are identified. It is noted that modelling transient droplet …

A skeletal mechanism with 54 species and 269 reactions was developed to predict pyrolysis
and oxidation of n-dodecane as a diesel fuel surrogate involving both high-temperature …

The RNG κ-ε turbulence model derived by Yakhot and Orszag (1986) based on the
Renormalization Group theory has been modified and applied to variable-density engine …

ABSTRACT A multi-dimensional computer model is used to study atomization and
vaporization of a liquid jet injected from a round hole into a compressed gas. Atomization is …

An improved spray atomization model is presented for use in both diesel and gasoline spray
computations. The KH-RT hybrid atomization model consists of two distinct steps: primary …

We present a method for calculating drop aerodynamic breakup in engine sprays. A short
history is first given of the major milestones in the development of the stochastic particle …

Spray models have been evaluated using experimentally measured trajectories and drop
sizes of single drops injected into a high relative velocity gas flow. The computations were …

Recent measurements by Siebers et al. have shown that the flame of a high pressure Diesel
spray stabilizes under quiescent conditions at a location downstream of the fuel injector. The …

Because of the importance of multiphase flows in a wide variety of industries, including
power, petroleum, and numerous processing industries, an understanding of the behavior …
