Abstract

Although the importance of the atomization process in diesel engines is often pointed out, spray characteristics are not well known. Many papers have reported on jet length, spray angle, spray trajectory and droplet formation, but measurements of drop size in individual transient diesel sprays are almost nonexistent [1–4]. The reasons for the lack of drop size data are apparent when one considers the extreme environmental conditions within the diesel engine combustion chamber and the nature of the fuel itself, including high velocities, high number densities, and the small sizes of spray drops.
