The study of droplet evaporation and combustion dynamics addresses the complex interplay of heat and mass transfer, phase change and chemical reactions inherent in the burning of liquid droplets. By ...

In space, fuel burns in a sphere. The FLEX-2 experiment studies this type of combustion. In space, a drop of fuel burns in a sphere, symmetrically sucking in oxygen and producing heat and gas equally ...

Ultra-short laser pulses can generate microbubbles inside droplets of diesel and biodiesel. These tiny bubbles merge to make bigger ones that burst and fragment the droplets 1. Researchers at the ...

You've seen the evidence. You disassemble an engine and witness the appearance of deposits—or their absence—on piston crowns and combustion chambers in the cylinder heads. You can relate the presence, ...
