In the first semester, the experimental systems to study the vaporisation/combustion in high-pressure condition of BFO droplets and spray formation in engine-like conditions have been developed and set-up. In the second semester, the activities regarding Task 5 (Fundamental behaviour of BFO in combustion) were dedicated to design and build up a second chamber to study BFO droplet combustion in high pressure conditions. Preliminary experiments at 1 bar, 4 bar and 8 bar have been also carried out in that period. According to the timetable, the injection tests foreseen in the second semester of Tasks 7 (Engine tests), were completely performed. Visualisation of BFO sprays and endurance tests of the injection apparatus were carried out in conditions typical in Diesel engines.

Abstract
In the first semester, the experimental systems to study the vaporisation/combustion in high-pressure condition of BFO droplets and spray formation in engine-like conditions have been developed and set-up. In the second semester, the activities regarding Task 5 (Fundamental behaviour of BFO in combustion) were dedicated to design and build up a second chamber to study BFO droplet combustion in high pressure conditions. Preliminary experiments at 1 bar, 4 bar and 8 bar have been also carried out in that period. According to the timetable, the injection tests foreseen in the second semester of Tasks 7 (Engine tests), were completely performed. Visualisation of BFO sprays and endurance tests of the injection apparatus were carried out in conditions typical in Diesel engines.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
