Metallizing and gelling hydrocarbons has received attention since the 1960s, but slurry fuels utilizing micron particles suffer from long particle burning times and problematic agglomeration. This study investigates single droplet combustion of kerosene with oxygen-containing nanoparticle additives, assembled by electrospray into nitrocellulose (NC)-bound composite “mesoparticle” (MP) structures (on...
Addition of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles to hydrocarbon fuels has shown the ability to increase the volumetric energy density, decrease ignition delay, increase heat of combustion, and catalyze fuel decomposition in recent research. However, energetic metal nanoparticles are prone to aggregation, which occurs at an increased rate near the regressing surface of a burning liquid droplet where...
