Cenosphere Formation during Single-Droplet Combustion of Heavy Fuel Oil by Long Jiang (572479)

“…Impacts of operation conditions (initial HFO droplet size, temperature, and air co-flow rate) and asphaltene content on cenosphere formation in a drop tube furnace were then investigated. Three types of cenosphere morphology were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), namely, larger hollow globules, medium porous cenospheres, and smaller cenospheres with a perfectly spherical and smooth structure. …”
