Abstract
null null Combustion characteristics of isolated sub-millimeter sized methyl butanoate (MB) droplets are studied at low gravity (10−4 m/s2) in a 1.2 s drop tower. In the experiments, droplets were grown and deployed onto the intersection of two 14 μm silicon carbide fibers in a cross-string arrangement and exposed to symmetrically placed spark ignition sources. The initial droplet diameter was fixed at 0.54 ± 0.01 mm, and experiments were...
