%K blurry injector, biofuels, hydrous ethanol, soy biodiesel, drop size.
%X In recent years there has been a great interest in the use of biofuels in order to reduce the environmental impact of combustion processes and replacement of fossil fuels. New combustion technologies are also under development, aiming to reduce costs, increase operating efficiency and reduce pollutants emissions. This work describes the spray characteristics of hydrous ethanol and B100 soy biodiesel in a blurry injector for applications in a flameless compact combustion chamber. The experimental results are obtained over a range of relatively low flow rates and injection pressures, with different air-to-liquid mass flow ratios (ALR). The main parameters that have been selected in the experimental characterization are average drop diameter, drop size distribution and discharge coefficient.
