Droplet Combustion in Convective Environment
In practical devices, both free and forced convection will prevail,
|
Flow past the fuel droplet for Re > 20
|
- Front portion of the droplet – Boundary layer.
- Rear portion – Wake region
|
In practical devices, forced convection is more predominant
|
Boundary condition at the droplet surface,

-------(2)
|
- Convective heat transfer coefficient |
|
Combining the above two expressions,
