| Abstract | In the foam combustion, liquid fuel forms foam, numerous fine air bubbles wrapped with very thin liquid film. Burning liquid fuel in this condition has several advantages compared with conventional combustion technology. As the foam produces thin film of liquid fuel and wide interfacial area between fuel and air, apparent heat capacity of fuel decreases extremly. As a result, the evaporation rate of fuel rises markedly. In addition, this foam combustion can acheive quick response, low fuel consumption, low pollutant emission. |
