LIF measurements of fuel vapor in an acetone droplet stream
The acetone vapor concentration between two neighboring droplets in a droplet stream is measured using laser induced fluorescence. It was found that a cylindrical region of high vapor concentration surrounds the droplet stream. As the droplet spacing decreases the minimum concentration between droplets increases because of limited entrainment towards the stream axis from lower concentration regions.
