This thesis deals with evaporation tubes used for fuel distribution in the combustion chambers of small turbojet engines. The theoretical part focuses on the physical processes of air-fuel mixture formation. It also provides a comparison between evaporation tubes and pressure fuel atomizers, including their advantages and disadvantages. The subsequent section details the design, implementation, and testing of a custom experimental setup. This apparatus was developed to investigate fuel evaporation processes for the purpose of tube optimization. The work includes a literature review of similar experimental setups and small turbojet engines. Additionally, the properties of JET A-1 aviation fuel and heat transfer mechanisms were described to establish the design requirements. Following the fabrication and verification of the experimental setup, measurements were conducted under various operating regimes of the evaporation tube. Finally, the system was analyzed in terms of measurement repeatability, and the primary heat transfer mechanisms were evaluated.

Process of defence
Student prezentoval svoji závěrečnou práci která se zabývala odpařovací trubicí pro distribuci paliva v malých proudových motorech. V následné rozpravě student popisoval prokazování opakovatelnosti experimentu, a možností stanovení experimentálně získaných hodnot pomocí softwarových nástrojů. Následná obecná rozprava se týkala procesu spalování v motoru, výkonových limitů motoru, konstrukce odpařovací trubice, možností využití průtokoměrů, možnosti využití analytických vztahů pro návrh odpařovací trubice a procesu zapalování.
