Nowadays, researchers are seeking different methods to develop the performance of MDEs. Fuels spray behavior has key role to improve of MDEs. Therefore, in the present paper, fundamental of non-reacting and non-evaporating fuel spray simulation are reviewed. For this purpose, recent works in this context are presented and after that, microscopic and macroscopic characteristics of non-reacting spray are described. Finally, the basic formulations of Eulerian-Lagrangian multiphase and different breakup models are presented. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajme/7/1/1/ajme-7-1-1.pdf non-reacting spray CFD fuel marine diesel engines breakup model
