In addition, the residual air bubble distribution with diesel was experimentally and numerically studied on the nozzle spray. investigated the effect of residual air bubbles on the diesel engine during the injection process. Bubble transportation and mechanisms of bubble breakup were also studied. Many studies were focused on the size distribution of air bubbles measurements to control air–fuel mixing by applying the liquid and airflow rates. Air bubble generation technology has been used to improve vehicle efficiency by reducing fuel consumption and reducing the fuel–air ratio. The enhancement of engine performance and reduced pollutant emissions can impact positively on the environment and energy. The highest velocity distribution was determined to be 90 mm/s for diesel without air bubbles and 20 mm/s for diesel with air bubbles after a month of the bubble generation. Then, we used the OpenPIV program for PIV image processing. In addition, the particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to measure the velocity field. The micro air bubble radius measured in diesel was found to be 6.26 µm in the sample after a month from air bubble generation. We measured the size distribution of air bubbles generated using the ImageJ program. An available optical system with a 10× objective lens can detect a bubble diameter greater than 3.3 µm that air bubble images were processed using the ImageJ program. Another optical system with a 10× objective lens was used to obtain the size distribution of air bubbles generated in diesel.

First, the optical system without an objective lens was used to determine the velocity of air bubbles in diesel. Two optical systems were used for measurement air bubble sizes and their velocities in diesel. The air bubble radius and velocity measurements can be useful parameters to optimize the bubble generation process.

A KTM Series Pump was used to generate micro air bubbles in diesel. In this paper, we determine the bubble size and velocity from air bubble generation (MBG) in a diesel using optical methods.
