Numerical simulation of the cavitation and spray in a marine diesel engine is performed to investigate the effects of injection pressure on the cavitation flow and spray characteristics in the marine diesel engine, which in turn influence atomization and combustion in the cylinder. A two-phase flow model combined with single bubble dynamics and a droplet break-up model are used to simulate cavitation and spray, respectively, and the results are compared to the experimental data. With increasing injection pressure, the pressure fluctuations inside the nozzle become more intense. The spray penetration is proportional to time at the beginning of injection. Higher injection pressure increases the spray angle. In addition, massive structures on spray edge can return to the spray body, whereas the massive structures on the spray head remain unchanged throughout its lifetime. Each additional 20 MPa of injection pressure reduces the Sauter mean diameter by approximately 9%.

This paper examined the properties of goose eggshells to determine possible areas of improvement in egg transport and storage. First, we measured goose egg sizes and performed statistical tests, and found that the major axis, minor axis, and egg-shape index presented normal distribution. Eggshell thickness first increased and then decreased from the blunt end to the sharp end. Second, the shape of individual goose eggshell was measured using a 3D scanner. Volume equation, surface equation, and contour function of goose eggshell shape were obtained, exhibiting a highly symmetrical structure. Finally, goose eggs were compressed along their major and minor axes between two plates. Breaking strength was highly dependent on the shape index. A crack was found on the force point along the major axis of each goose egg.
