Abstract

The formation of the mushroomlike jet emerging after droplet coalescence is deciphered by studying the growth and detachment of the main vortex ring. A Reynolds number calculated based on the main vortex ring is shown to provide a unified formation criterion for such internal jets.

  • IDT tends to decrease with increasing We at fixed Δ owing to enhanced droplet deformation and mixing.

    “Figure 6d shows that IDT tends to decrease with increasing We at fixed Δ owing to the enhanced droplet deformation and mixing.25,57,63”

  • The dominant chemical effect over the physical effect of enhanced mixing results in smaller size ratios promoting droplet hypergolic ignition.

    “Although increasing Δ tends to enhance droplet mixing 25,57,63 and hence the exothermic liquid-phase reaction, which is crucial for droplet heating, vaporization, and combustion, the dominant chemical effect over its physical effect results in smaller size ratios that promote droplet hypergolic ignition.”

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.
