The aim of this study is to investigate fuel deposits by using the hot surface deposition test (HSDT). In this test, diesel fuel droplets were repeatedly impinged to the hot surface and deposits were developed on it. The hot surface temperature affected the deposit formation. Different hot surface temperature showed different droplet-surface interaction, evaporation lifetime and wet/dry condition where various deposit development features resulted. The hot surface temperatures that located near MEP (maximum evaporation rate point) temperature have potential to reduce the deposit formation on the hot surface. The deposition within nucleate heat transfer boiling regime (lower than the MEP temperature) caused greater deposit accumulation on the hot surface compared to the deposition within transition heat transfer boiling regime (near the MEP temperature). Less total amount of deposit that was described as slow deposit development, resulted under non-overlapping impingement and dry deposit condition. Under the overlapping impingement and wet deposit condition, it caused the accumulation of greater total amount of deposit compared to the non-overlapping and dry deposit condition. |
