“…During the actual evaporation and combustion process inside the combustion engines, the evaporation process is through aggregates of droplets and not a separate drop. Therefore, the process of overlapping between the drops leads to a more complex evaporation process, as was clarified by Bouaziz et al [38][39][40].…”

The process of fuel droplet evaporating is one of the most important factors that directly affect the efficiency of the combustion process. Therefore, the current study reviews previous studies that focused on the process of evaporation of a drop of fuel. The review is divided into points. The first part is concerned with modeling of the evaporation process under different initial condition and temperature of the droplet. The second part present the experimental studies concerned with measuring the evaporation time of the droplet, as well as the shape of the droplet during the evaporation process. Most of the studies related to this subject can be divided into three categories: The first category is the studies that are concerned with the process of heating the droplet and studying the evaporation time for different types of fuels or by adding nanomaterials to the fuel and studying their effect on the evaporation process. The second category is the studies concerned with the mechanics of droplet evaporation and the study of droplet shape. The third category is the studies that focus on studying the effect of initial conditions, such as temperature and pressure, as well as the concentration of gasses surrounding the drop and their types. There are other studies concerned with projecting the electric field onto the drop during the evaporation process and studying its effect.
