When a drop is subjected to a surrounding dispersed phase that is moving at an initial
relative velocity, aerodynamic forces will cause it to deform and fragment. This is referred to …

The impingement and ice accretion of supercooled large droplets (SLD) on the aircraft
surface is one of the crucial factors threatening flight safety. The movement and …

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 …

The breakup of droplets in a high-speed air stream is investigated experimentally and
theoretically. This study is based on experiments conducted by exposing pendant droplets to …

Characterization of high pressure diesel sprays has been performed both experimentally
and numerically. The experimental study was conducted using a fuel injection system which …

In 1994, an ATR-72 crashed in Roselawn, IN1. It has been speculated that accident
occurred due to the accumulation of ice aft of the deicing boots. Ice formed aft of the boots …

Large-eddy simulation (LES) of a liquid-fueled lean-direct injection (LDI) combustor is
carried out by resolving the entire inlet flow path through the swirl vanes and the combustor …

A study was performed of the distortion and breakup mechanisms of liquid drops injected
into a transverse high velocity air jet at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The …

The deformation and fragmentation of single ethyl alcohol drops injected into a continuous
air-jet is experimentally investigated. High speed shadowgraphy coupled with image …

Computational Optimization of Internal Combustion Engines presents the state of the art of
computational models and optimization methods for internal combustion engine …
