An experimental investigation of microexplosion in bio fuel emulsion

Puffing and microexplosion characteristics of water in bio diesel emulsion droplets were investigated. Emulsified fuel droplets were visualized on a hot surface during Leidenfrost effect. The emulsions tested were with 9, 12 and 15 of water stabilized by 5, 10 and 15 of surfactant dosages with an HL...
