Technological developments in diesel engines require improvements to the fuel injection system meet criteria for economical, high-power and efficient combustion environmental regulatory standards. One method that has a lot of interest is changing characteristics fuel, with aim producing optimal combustion. Spray have big role determining quality engines. A good spray can improve atomization hom...

Spray characteristics have an important role in improving the quality of combustion compression engines. This study analyzes effect ambient temperature on spray including tip penetration, angle and velocity spray. The research method uses experimental with variations 60 o C, 80 100 C controlled using a thermocouple pressure 0.3 MPa. composition fuel diesel (diesel 100%), B30 (30% biodiesel), B1...

This paper is concerned with aspects of gasoline spray droplet impingement simulation, for which an improved model has been developed for predicting the outcomes of spray droplets impacting on a wall. The model is assessed by simulating experiments on oblique spray impingement in a wind tunnel. This is done with the aid of a specially-devised procedure for deducing the specification of initial ...

The accurate prediction of fuel sprays is critical to engine combustion and emissions simulations. A fine computational mesh is often required to better resolve fuel spray dynamics and vaporization. However, computations with a fine mesh require extensive computer time. This study developed a methodology that uses a locally refined mesh in the spray region. Such adaptive mesh refinement will en...

The effect of fuel properties on the structure of swirling spray flames has been investigated. Droplet size, number density and velocity measurements have been carried out in pressureatomized spray flames using phase/Doppler interferometry. Four fuels with different physical properties were studied, namely n-heptane, methanol, 50/50 methanol/1-dodecanol mixture, and kerosene. The results indica...

To help understand the complex fuel spray combustion phenomena in modern diesel engine using high injection pressure, a fuel injection test bench and a constant volume combustion chamber were developed and demonstrated in this study for diesel spray diagnostics. Both facilities are significant when linking between spray injection and combustion dynamics and engine performance. This link is impo...

This thesis covers two main topics. The first is the comparison between the Reynoldsaveraged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulation and the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of high injection pressure diesel sprays under non-evaporating or evaporating conditions. The second topic is the comparison of the fuel behavior in the spray process between the hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) and the conventional EN ...

-Theoretical and experimental studies dealing with the spray ignition phenomena are reviewed. Two major topics covered are external-source ignition of liquid fuel sprays and spontaneous spray ignition. Experimental and theoretical investigations of external-source ignition of sprays employing different configurations are discussed first. Three major topics included here are: (i) ignition of qui...

A 3-D CFD model based on KIVA 3 code is developed with a “reduced” detailed chemical kinetics of 291 elementary reaction steps with 79 chemical species for diesel fuel combustion. The model was validated by the corresponding experimental results and employed to examine some important parameters which have significant effects on the engine performance for an IDI diesel engine with a swirl chambe...

Droplet transport processes that occur in fuel sprays and spray flames were examined using laser velocimetry, phase Doppler interferometry, and laser sheet beam photography. Droplet size and velocity (axial and radial) distributions were obtained in a swirl-stabilized, pressure-atomized kerosene spray under nonburning and burning conditions. The results show that the introduction of swirl to th...
