An Experimental Study on Vaporization and Combustion Behavior for Single Droplets of Water-in-Oil Emulsified Fuels
유화연료 단일액적의 증발 및 연소거동에 관한 실험적 연구
Abstract
An experimental study has been carried out of the combustion behavior of single fuel droplets of water-in-light oil emulsions in an electric furnace to elucidate the dominant factor for the occurrence of micro-explosions. The tests were carried out by changing the following four parameters; the size of water droplets in the emulsified fuels having the same water content, the ratio of water to light oil, ambient temperature in electric furnace, and the kind of fuel having different viscosity(Kerosene, Olive Oil). The result shows that the each parameter plays the different role in the effect on behavior of vaporization, explosion, ignition and combustion for single droplets of water-in-oil Emulsified fuels.
