What is it about?

In this study, a pressure-swirl device with a spiral path was designed, built, and tested at various inlet pressures, and the experimental results were used to verify the accuracy of the numerical solution. Finally, we conducted a numerical investigation on the impact of fuel temperature on kerosene spray at four different temperatures: 243 K (approximately 10 degrees below the freezing point), 273 K (approximately equidistant between the freezing and flash point temperatures), 300 K (approximately 10 degrees below the flash point temperature), and 324 K (within the temperature range of the flash point).
