Effect of air turbulence and fuel composition on bi-component droplet evaporation

Understanding the influence of fuel composition and air turbulence on evaporation of bi-component fuel droplet is the aim of the current investigation. Experiments were carried out with a single fuel droplet (a mixture of n-heptane and ethanol) suspended using the cross-wire technique within a box of turbulence facility that is capable of generating near zero-mean homogeneous and isotropic turbulence at its center. The fuel composition (i.e. the...
