HYD Bosch Fuel Properties calculation
Fuel Properties calculation We consider three different cases to compute the Bosch fuel properties:
| Case 1: | P > PHvap | there is liquid and free gas |
|---|---|---|
| Case 2: | PLvap < P < PHvap | there is some liquid, some vapour, and free air/gas |
| Case 3: | P < PLvap | there is vapor and All the air/gas is free (no liquid) |
The main assumptions are:
The evolution of the fluid is isentropic.
The gas used is always air.
The air is always free (no dissolution of air within the liquid).
The “air/gas content” does not vary with time or position.
The volume of the free air/gas/vapor is assumed to vary with pressure in a way determined by a constant polytropic index Γ.
