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 …

Due to the lack of sufficient measurement methods, great difficulties are still present in
clarifying the relationship between the nozzle internal flow and liquid-jet dynamics …

One numerical method was designed to solve the time-dependent, three-dimensional,
incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in turbulent thermal channel flows. Its originality …

The design of fuel injectors is key to achieving high-efficiency engine combustion with low
tailpipe emissions. The small dimensions of injector nozzle holes make the manufacturing of …

The aim of this paper is the evaluation and validation of the Eulerian–Lagrangian Spray
Atomization (ELSA) model implemented in a CFD code by Renault. ELSA is an integrated …

The design of a Diesel injector is a key factor in achieving higher engine efficiency. The
injector's fuel atomisation characteristics are also critical for minimising toxic emissions such …

Results when testing cavitating injection nozzles show a strong reduction in mass flow rate
when cavitation appears (the flow is choked), while the momentum flux is reduced to a …

A multi-species cavitation model is applied to a high-pressure injection cycle. Results of
transient simulations with ballistic needle dynamics are presented. Species segregation in …

The fuel property effect on a high-pressure ballistic injection cycle is studied by n-dodecane
and n-heptane because these pure fuels have well-known and well-specified properties …

The cavitating in-nozzle flow and primary breakup are investigated for a ballistic injection
cycle of a close-to-production 9-hole heavy-duty diesel injector. The Reynolds and Weber …
