Abstract

Using a high temperature and high pressure constant volume vessel filled with nitrogen, macroscopic characteristics of dimethyl ether spray were compared with diesel fuel spray under the same constant injection pressure. Schlieren method and scattered backlight method were employed to distinguish the evaporated region from non-evaporated region. As the results, it was found thtat dimethyl ether evaporated rapidly compared with diesel fuel, and the penetration of the gasified dimethyl ether jet was comparable to that of diesel fuel spray.
