TL;DR: The influence of micro-explosion on high pressure spray characteristics of water emulsified diesel was optically observed and discussed in this article, where experiments were conducted in a constant volume combustion chamber with a high-speed schlieren system to capture the spray and combustion processes.

TL;DR: The morphology and nanostructure of soot particles in laminar diffusion flame has been investigated in this article, where the authors used TEM (transmission electron microscopy) analysis to study the morphology of the particles at different points on the centerline inside the flames.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of NH3 addition with varying ratios (between 0% and 60% by mole fraction while the remainder is argon) on soot formation in laminar diffusion flames were experimentally and numerically investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a flat flame method was used to measure the laminar flame speed in a counter-flow configuration combined with particle image velocimetry (PIV) system, and it was found that the promotion of reaction R1 to the methane/hydrogen mixtures flame speed is strongest, and its free radicals concentration in flame increase more obviously.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the spray and combustion characteristics of ethanol-diesel (E10), water-emulsified diesel (W10), and neat diesel (D100), especially micro-explosion of E10 and W10.
