Why atomizing air required in burner?

Even though fuel oil is classified as a flammable liquid, most fuels will not burn easily in a liquid state. If you were to drop a lit match in a container of fuel oil, it would PROBABLY go out almost immediately (don't try this!). In order for fuel oil to burn, it must first be transformed from a liquid to a vaporized state ~ atomized. Atomization increases the exposure of the fuel to the oxygen in the air; this promotes combustion.


What are the two types of rocket fuel?

The two types of rocket fuel are liquid fuel and solid fuel. Liquid fuel rockets use a combination of liquid propellants, such as liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, that are mixed and burned to create thrust. Solid fuel rockets have a solid mixture of fuel and oxidizer that is ignited to produce thrust.


What is an example of a liquid fossil fuel?

An example of a liquid fossil fuel is petroleum, which is commonly used in vehicles and for heating. It is extracted from the ground and refined into products such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel.


How is fuel stored in rockets?

Fuel is typically stored in rockets either as liquid fuel in fuel tanks or as solid fuel in a casing. Liquid fuel rockets have separate tanks for liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen or kerosene, while solid fuel rockets have a solid propellant mixture in a casing. Both types of fuel storage systems are designed to be safe, efficient, and controlled during flight.


What is the liquid form of a fossil fuel?

GAS I take it this is an American answering. As a British person, OIL is a liquid fossil fuel, COAL is a solid fossil fuel and NATURAL GAS is a gaseous fossil fuel.

What type of fuel is used in model rocketry?

There are two main types of fuel: solid fuel and liquid fuel. Rocket fuel most use both a fuel and an oxidizer. The solid fuel in most modern rockets uses aluminum powder as fuel, ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer, and iron oxide as a catalyst. Liquid fuel uses liquid hydrogen as fuel and liquid oxygen as an oxidizer.

What are the examples of liquid fuels.?

There are many examples, depending upon the use. Most often, liquid fuel is described as an option as compared to solid fuel. Rockets are one example where both solid and liquid fuels may be used. Liquid hydrogen is the common rocket liquid fuel. Cooking stoves can use solid or liquid fuel, in addition to gas. The most common cooking stove liquid fuel is alcohol.
