Droplet size distributions in liquid–liquid semi-batch Taylor vortex flow
AIP Advances, 2020 Optical methods were used to measure droplet size distributions in a liquid–liquid Taylor vortex reactor oriented vertically along its main axis and operated in a semi-batch fashion with continuous feed of the dispersed phase and no feed or removal of ...

Physics of puffing and microexplosion of emulsion fuel droplets [PDF]
, 2014 The physics of water-in-oil emulsion droplet microexplosion/puffing has been investigated using high-fidelity interface-capturing simulation. Varying the dispersed-phase (water) sub-droplet size/location and the initiation location of explosive boiling ...

Effect of viscosities of dispersed and continuous phases in microchannel oil-in-water emulsification [PDF]
, 2010 Although many aspects of microchannel emulsification have been covered in literature, one major uncharted area is the effect of viscosity of both phases on droplet size in the stable droplet generation regime. It is expected that for droplet formation to

Micromachines, 2018 A fully passive microdroplet sorting method is presented in this paper. On the rails with dot patterns, the droplets were sorted in different ways depending on their size. However, the effect of droplet properties on the threshold size of the sorting was

Cavitation controls droplet sizes in elastic media [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021 Significance Biological cells use liquid-like droplets to partition their proteins spatially. These droplets are typically surrounded by an elastic matrix, like the cytoskeleton or chromatin, but how the matrix affects droplets is unclear. To elucidate this, we introduce a theoretical model describing experiments in a synthetic system.

Continuous Growth of Droplet Size Variance due to Condensation in Turbulent Clouds [PDF]
, 2015 We use a stochastic model and direct numerical simulation to study the impact of turbulence on cloud droplet growth by condensation. We show that the variance of the droplet size distribution increases in time as t^{1/2}, with growth rate proportional to

Atomized spray droplet size prediction from multi-hole nozzle for direct injection gasoline engines
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2017 We investigated atomized spray droplet size from multi-hole nozzles for direct injection gasoline (DIG) engines. Our findings showed that the droplet size can be described by the nozzle-hole geometry. For the DIG engine, adequate spray pattern and finely

Droplet formation in a T-shaped microfluidic junction [PDF]
, 2009 Using a phase-field model to describe fluid/fluid interfacial dynamics and a lattice Boltzmann model to address hydrodynamics, two dimensional (2D) numerical simulations have been performed to understand the mechanisms of droplet formation in ...

Measurement of Sprinkler Droplet Size [PDF]
Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 2001 Droplet distributions for rotating spray-plate sprinklers were measured using a laser technology and a flour methodology. In general, both methods produced comparable results. The flour method tended to produce d25, d50 and d75 values that were on the average about 0.20 mm (about 15% of the d 50 value) larger than laser values.
