The complex process of fuel spray combustion is analyzed. Primary air flow and flame holding circulations created by swirl are examined along with gas flow induced in liquid sprays, and drop size effects on droplet trajectories. Transfer of heat and mass between reacting and nonreacting zones is also studied along with reaction zones in the wake of large drops. Models for the kinetics of reacting drop lamina are presented.
