Time-Varying Oscillatory Response of Burning Gel Fuel Droplets

Gels, 2023
Gel fuel droplets exhibit disruptive burning due to the rupture of their gellant shell, which causes the release of unreacted fuel vapors from the droplet interior to the flame in the form of jets.

Jetting Dynamics of Burning Gel Fuel Droplets

Gels, 2022
Jetting in burning gel fuel droplets is an important process which, in addition to pure vaporization, enables the convective transport of unreacted fuel vapors from the droplet interior to the flame envelope. This aids in accelerating the fuel efflux and
