Abstract

Absorption spectra of four types of diesel fuel are studied experimentally in the range between 0.2 μm and 6 μm. The ageing process of fuels is simulated by prolonged boiling. The average absorption efficiency factor of droplets is assumed to be proportional to ardb, where rd is the droplet radius, and a and b are polynomial functions of external gas temperature. Explicit expressions for a and b are derived for diesel fuel droplets in various realistic droplet radii and external gas temperature ranges for all four types of fuel.
