Experimental study of micro-explosion and puffing of gas-to-liquid (GTL) fuel blends by suspended droplet method
In this study, a set of GTL�diesel fuel blends (G20, G50, G80, and G100, where the number represents the percentage of GTL fuel in the fuel blend) are prepared. Subsequently, using the suspended droplet method in a controlled heating chamber, the evaporation behaviour of these GTL fuel blends is v...
