Spray modelling plays a key role in engine simulations to understand fuel propagation and mixing, combustion, pollutant formation and energy efficiency. The grid dependency, need of calibration of several spray parameters, complexity associated with validation and high computational demand associated with Spray modelling are addressed with 1-dimentional SprayLet model. This work focuses on enhancing the SprayLet model approach with a dual emphasis on computational efficiency and grid independence for advanced engine simulations. Key spray characteristics, such as vapor and liquid penetration lengths, have been systematically evaluated as they play pivotal roles in understanding fuel evaporation, spray-wall interactions, and mixture formation within engines.
