title = "Effect of grouping of fuel droplets on a flame formed by an oscillating spray jet",
abstract = "The sensitivity to the vaporization Damkohler number of the behavior of a co-flow laminar spray diffusion flame in an oscillating flow field is investigated. Droplet grouping induced by the host gas flow oscillations is accounted for. The effect of droplet grouping is described through a specially constructed model for the vaporization Damkohler number that responds to the proximity of the droplets as they cluster due to the spray-flow oscillations. A formal analytical solution is developed for Schwab-Zeldovitch parameters through which the dynamics of the spray flame front shapes and thermal fields are deduced. Computed results based on the solutions demonstrate how strongly the vaporization Damkohler number including droplet grouping effects impacts on the type of primary homogeneous flame formed and on the possible existence of multiple flame sheets as a result of dynamic changes from under- to over-ventilated flames as the flow field oscillates.",
