Droplet Breakup—in a Velocity Field

Isolated Droplet Breakup—in a Velocity Field Much effort has focused on defining the conditions under which an isolated drop will break in a velocity field. The criterion for the largest stable drop... [Pg.1408]

Bentley and Leal have measured droplet shapes and critical conditions for droplet breakup over a wide range of capillary numbers, viscosity ratios, and flow types. The flow type is conveniently controlled in an apparatus called a four-roll mill, in which a velocity field is generated by the rotation of four rollers in a container of liquid (see Fig. 1-15). By varying the rotation rate of one pair of rollers relative to that of a second pair, velocity fields ranging from planar extension to nearly simple shear can be produced near the stagnation point. [Pg.401]
