Break-up and atomisation mechanisms in high pressure fuel sprays

这项研究的重点是发现导致高压喷雾破裂和雾化的潜在机制，比如在许多发动机中发现的高压喷雾。该研究项目利用了一系列目的设计的实验设施和方法，这些设施和方法处于该领域研究的前沿。这项研究的结果将产生改进的喷雾模型，为柴油发动机和可能的燃气涡轮发动机带来低排放燃油喷射器的新时代。

The focus of this research is discovering the underlying mechanisms that give rise to the break-up and atomisation of high pressure sprays such as those found in many engines. The program of research makes use of a range of purpose designed experimental facilities and methodologies which are at the forefront of research in this area. The outcomes from this research will yield improved spray models giving rise to a new era of low emission fuel injectors for diesel and possibly gas turbine engines.
