Abstract

Interaction of hydrocarbon fuel drops with high-temperature substrates is commonly encountered in combustion chambers, and such dynamics are relevant in design and optimization of fuel spray systems. Dynamics of fuel drops impacting on a heated solid surface in the splashing regime is investigated through high-speed imaging experiments. The effect of surface temperature in altering the impacting drop morphology and quantitative trends in splashing is studied in detail. The variation of splash behavior of drops impacting at three distinct drop Weber number (We) at different surface temperatures (TS) is considered. For a fixed We, an increase in the surface temperature causes a shift in the impact dynamics from splashing to spreading, which indicates higher threshold We at higher TS. The dynamics of the ejected liquid sheet and the spreading lamella post-impact are analyzed from the high-speed images to quantify the observed transitions.
