Breakup regime of flashing jet under thermal nonequilibrium and mechanical forces and its relationship with jet characteristics during depressurized releases of superheated liquid

Categorization of iso-pentane flashing spray based on morphology, thermodynamical and mechanical effects

“…(1) Recently, Zhu et al (2023b) provided a modified criterion to distinguish the flashing mode of water. Based on Eq.…”

“…Inspired by previous criterions, the driving forces denoting thermodynamic and mechanical effects can be degenerated to the groups of f(Ja, R p ) and f(We v , Oh), respectively. So, the quantitative criterion coupling these two driving forces in this work take the same form as the one originally proposed by Zhu et al (2023b), but with new constants developed. The generalized form of criterion is expressed by…”
