On the transcritical mixing of fuels at diesel engine conditions

[Display omitted] •We observed microscopic fuel droplets transitioning to supercritical fluid.•A conceptual model and criteria for the transition to diffusive mixing are proposed.•Surface tension and primary atomization remain important features of diesel mixing.•Transition to diffusive mixing regim...
