Summary:

The objectives of this two-volume set is to discuss the progress associated with spray atomization and combustion, to familiarize readers with the state of the art in this important field, to identify remaining technological gap areas and promote further research of unresolved problems in spray combustion, and to provide a useful tool for young engineers and scientists concerned with or working in spray combustion.These two volumes are recommended for those in industry, government, or university research labs who have a technological background in mechanical, chemical, aerospace, aeronautical, or computer engineering. Engineers and scientists working in chemical processes, thermal energy generation, propulsion, and environmental control will find this book useful and informative.
