Experimental investigation on droplet burning characteristics of diesel-benzyl azides blend

In this work, the droplet burning characteristics of neat benzyl azides, diesel-benzyl azides blends (10%, 30%, 50% of benzyl azides (wt.)) and diesel fuel were investigated under atmospheric pressure. The ambient temperature around the flat-flame burner is about 1123 K. The initial droplet temperature is about 300 K. The effects of ambient oxygen concentration (14%, 21% and 30%) and initial droplet diameter (∼257 μm and ∼456 μm) on the burning...
