Fuel injector coking
| The aim of the project is to develop in-depth understanding of fuel coking phenomena based on a combination of rig testing and simulations. Both flowing and stagnant fuel coking regimes will be investigated as well as propensity to fuel ingress of industrially relevant fuel injectors. The research here proposed will directly support ultra-high bypass ratio engine design concepts, as these are usually leading to an increased amount of heat transfer to the fuel circuit. |
