Abstract In the present experimental and theoretical work the propagation of a high-speed fuel spray at distances much longer than the breakup length is studied. The motion of the spray is modeled in two regions: the main region of the steady flow and the front region of the spray. The analysis yields the equation of propagation of the tip of the spray. These theoretical results have been validated against experimental data obtained from a common-rail diesel injection nozzle and from other data available in the literature. The importance of the shock wave propagation at the initial stage of the spray injection is demonstrated.
