Abstract:The article analyses the degree of water superheating with respect to the liquid-vapour equilibrium line in experiments on the micro-explosion of a composite droplet comprised of two immiscible liquids. The analyses were carried out for water-in-fuel drops under conditions of high-power heating. This degree is compared with the mechanical effect of droplet decay, involving the formation of daughter droplets. Our attention was drawn to the smallness of the degree of superheating preceding the decay. A model of … Show more
