The Engine Combustion Network (ECN) is a worldwide group of institutions using combustion vessels
and/or performing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation, whose aim is to advance the state of
spray and combustion ...

[EN] Despite the importance of sprays to engine combustion, understanding has been hampered by the sensitivity of spray behavior to unknown nozzle geometry effects. The Engine Combustion Network (ECN) collaboration has ...
Development and mixing of Diesel sprays are long known to be key factors for combustion and pollutant
emissions but the related measurements in a real engine is not an easy task. This fact led researchers
to simulate ...
[EN] To continuously improve CFD models which simulate spray evolution, breakup and evaporation mechanisms, it is
helpful to validate them with results obtained by experimental research. In the present study, a mono-orifice ...
