The model takes into account non-equilibrium phase transitions. The formulas obtained for droplet burning out are used to simulate spray injection into a heated chamber. It is demonstrated that a scenario of fuel spray injection and self-ignition in a heated air inside the combustion chamber has three characteristic stages. %8 2012-04-09
