Sprays are among the most intellectually challenging and practically important topics in fluid
mechanics. This paper reviews needs, milestones, challenges, and a broad array of …

Two-phase in-nozzle flows, such as cavitation and flash boiling, have been well studied as
effective means to enhance spray breakup and atomization via phase change both within …

The second edition of this long-time bestseller provides a framework for designing and
understanding sprays for a wide array of engineering applications. The text contains …

Despite the importance of sprays to engine combustion, understanding has been hampered
by the sensitivity of spray behavior to unknown nozzle geometry effects. The Engine …

This paper implements a coupled approach to integrate the internal nozzle flow and the
ensuing fuel spray using a Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) method in the finite-volume framework. A …

A computational study was performed to investigate the influence of transient needle motion
on gasoline direct injection (GDI) internal nozzle flow and near-field sprays. Simulations …

Fuel physical properties are known to influence in-nozzle flow behavior, in turn affecting
spray formation in internal combustion engines. A series of 3D simulations was performed to …

The internal structure of Diesel fuel injectors is known to have a significant impact on the
nozzle flow and the resulting spray emerging from each hole. In this paper the three …

The compression-ignition engine has been widely applied in various fields due to its high
efficiency, fuel economy, and adaptability. With the increasing awareness of environmental …

We investigate the turbulent multiphase flow inside a nine-hole common rail Diesel injector
during a full injection cycle of ISO 4113 diesel fuel into air by implicit large-eddy simulation …
