Oil droplet breakup during pressure swirl atomization of food emulsions: Influence of atomization pressure and initial oil droplet size [PDF]
Atomization of emulsions with pressure swirl atomizers is a common task in food process engineering. Especially in spray drying processes for food materials like dairy products, it is the technology of choice.

Lattice Boltzmann simulation of droplet behaviour in microfluidic devices [PDF]
We developed a lattice Boltzmann model to investigate the droplet dynamics in microfluidic devices. In our model, a stress-free boundary condition was proposed to conserve the total mass of flow system and improve the numerical stability for flows with ...

Theoretical and experimental studies on the oil-based emulsion spray
Oil-based emulsion is a common herbicide formulation in agricultural spray, and its atomization mechanism is different from that of water spray. In this paper, a theoretical model based on the characteristics of spray sheets was proposed to predict the ...

Effect of oil droplet sizes of oil‐in‐water emulsion on the taste impressions of added tastants
By conducing organoleptic analysis, the authors investigated the effect of oil droplet size on human preference to the taste of oil‐in‐water (o/w) emulsions to which several tastants were added.

Effect of Particle Size on Droplet Infiltration into Hydrophobic Porous Media As a Model of Water Repellent Soil [PDF]
The wettability of soil is of great importance for plants and soil biota, and in determining the risk for preferential flow, surface runoff, flooding,and soil erosion. The molarity of ethanol droplet (MED) test is widely used for quantifying the severity
