Spray Characteristic of Gasohol Blends Using Optical Measurement

This research is about to characterize the spray of gasoline-ethanol (gasohol) blends using optical measurement. The Image of the spray is captured using optical measurement to extract spray characteristics- spray tip penetration and spray cone angle. The focus of this study was to investigate the s...
