Autoignition and combustion of water-fuel emulsion during its injection into heated air. III. Completeness of combustion of fuel oil M-40

The dependence of the completeness of combustion of liquid fuel during its pulsed injection into heated air on the parameters of the medium and delivery conditions was established experimentally and it is shown that emulsification of the fuel does not affect the integral completeness of combustion. Therefore, an increase of fuel economy of diesel engines on converting them to a water-fuel emulsion can be achieved only due to a favorable change in the dynamics of the cycle.
