Injection of liquid fuel in the cross-flowing air provides a means of higher penetration, rapid mixing of liquid fuel and air, and is encountered in many engineering applications. Air-breathing propulsion systems (e.g. gas turbine combustors, ramjets, and scramjets), liquid rocket engines,cooling sprays for turbine blades, and injection of fuel in the afterburners are examples of such applications. The identification of microscopic characteristics is one of the basic methods of atomizer examination, which has not been taken into account due to inadequate experimental equipment. In the present study, droplet mono-frame velocimetry and size distribution of secondary atomization in a pressure... 

The velocity of the hot outflow gas in laminar premixed flame is one of the important properties of combustion, along with other properties such as temperature and flame components. In fact, laminar flame velocity has been employed in a multitude number of concepts ranging from engine design to achieving flame properties under turbulent conditions. In this research, a cylindrical Bunsen burner and appropriate TIO2 particles were used. Particles with diameters between 10-23 microns were used and the exit diameter of burner considered 14 mm. In this study, the equivalence ratio with a value between 0.9-1.2 are fed with LPG fuel to create a laminar premixed flame. As a result of the present...
