Abstract:Technology to support design for the next generation of aircraft fuel injectors is being developed by NASA’s Fundamental Aeronautics Program to reduce emissions, increase efficiency, and enable fuel flexible aircraft. The design of these fuel injectors can be aided by measuring the vaporization rates of jet fuel droplets in realistic, burning sprays. Currently, in this environment, no instantaneous vaporization rate measurement techniques have been applied. After surveying techniques for potential development … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
