File Name Convention

File names indicate the title of the experiment from which the data is taken, the injection pressure, the ambient pressure, and the nozzle serial number.

For example:

"Bosch12_500bar_1000us_5barN2_#0439"

indicates that the data came from the experiment we named "Bosch12", the injection pressure was 500 bar, the commanded injection duration was 1000 microseconds, the spray chamber pressure was 5 bar nitrogen (if no gas is specified, nitrogen was used), and the nozzle was our nozzle number #0439.

The type of information in the file may also be specified in the file name.  For example:

"MassVTime_width_pen"

indicates that the file contains mass versus time, width, and penetration data.

"Snapshots"

indicates that the file contains data in the "snapshots" file format.
