Injection Processes

• Utilize state-of-the-art experiments and simulations to develop an understanding of the influence of fuel jets on advanced combustion strategies that promise low-carbon emission, clean, highly efficient combustion systems for hard-to-electrify energy sectors.
• Conduct experimental measurements and computational simulations on relevant fuel injection cases, such as those promoted by the Endine Combustion Network (ECN). Worldwide efforts, such as the ECN, focus the research community on solving fundamental problems that speed the advancement of fuel injection technologies.
• Advance the state-of-the-art computational simulations of fuel jets that will be utilized to develop the next generation of low-carbon emission, clean, efficient combustion systems.
• Develop a fundamental understanding of cavitation in liquid fuel injector nozzles, its effect on sprays, and it propensity to damage injector nozzles over time.

• Fundamental fuel jet research provides the basis for enhanced computer-optimized designs of multiple combustion technologies.
• Progress in this area is critical to the achievement of the lowest possible greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions.
