The equations for the steady state combustion of liquid fuel drops in an oxidizing atmosphere were integrated numerically for various fuel-oxygen systems. The results give a continuous description of the drop behaviour from .the low mass burning rate kinetic controlled region to the high mass burnin

In order to clarify the relation between the evaporation process and the ignition mechanism of a fuel droplet (approximately 2 mm in diameter) on a hot surface, the mass of fuel (n-cetane) evaporated in an arbitrary short duration soon after the droplet comes into contact with the hot plate surface
A numerical analysis is presented which characterizes the response of fuel droplet burning rates to the transient effects of temperature, pressure, and oxidizer mass fraction that occur during the various stages of the power stroke of a diesel engine. The first stage of the analysis involves calcula
Two particular problems concerning the ignitability of a pool of liquid fuel are considered. First is the problem of d&rung the domain of ignitability of a pool of fuel at a superflash temperature subjected to a cross wind. it is postulated that this domain is bounded by the lean mixture limit or by
