- Although experimental studies have described the macroscopic properties of flash boiling sprays, little is known about this important process at the microscale. This paper is significant because it presents a comprehensive multi-phase DNS framework for the simulation of the primary breakup dynamics of flash-boiling atomisation at the microscale, which was used to derive for the first time a systematic classification of distinct droplet formation mechanisms. This research, which can guide the sub-grid scale modelling in larger scale systems, is a key outcome of an EPSRC Innovation Fellowship (EP/S001824/1).
