• After break-up, the fuel jet behaves as a gas jet and follows
the moment conservation law.
• jet centreline (um) is
• After the fuel jet has impinged the opposite chamber wall,
the movement of the wall jet is complicated.
• Many experimental formulae have been suggested in the
design methodologies.
• One such formulae used to calculate the velocity of the
zone that has impinged on the wall :

Air entrainment and mixing
• The rate of air entrainment into each zone is calculated on
the basis of the momentum conservation principle.
• The rate of entrainment relates not only to the fuel but also
to the air–fuel ratio in the quiescent combustion chamber.
• It is observed that the rate of air entrainment increases with
the increase of air–fuel ratio in the cylinder.
• The entrainment factor ce is linearly related to the
equivalence air–fuel, .
