A large We and a small Δ favor hypergolic ignition, with the critical Δ linearly increasing with We.
“The results suggest that a large We and a small Δ favor the hypergolic ignition, with the critical Δ linearly increasing with We.”
From Droplet collision of hypergolic propellants (2024) · cites this paper as [16]
IDT increases with Δ at fixed We.
“Figure 6c further shows that IDT increases with Δ at fixed We.”
From Droplet collision of hypergolic propellants (2024) · cites this paper as [16]
Droplet size reduction shortens the IDT for all cases at different We and Δ.
“However, the droplet size reduction shortens the IDT for all cases at different We and Δ, as shown in Figure 8b.”
From Droplet collision of hypergolic propellants (2024) · cites this paper as [16]
Reducing droplet size tends to suppress hypergolic ignition.
“Zhang et al. 16 recognized that droplet size effects (other than the size ratio effect) might also influence the hypergolic ignition based on their observations that reducing droplet size tends to suppress the hypergolic ignition, as can be seen in the ignitibility regime nomogram in the We d -O space shown in Figure 8a.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
