Experimental study of the stripping breakup of droplets and jets after their ejection from a liquid surface

Аннотация

This paper presents the results of experiments on the breakup dynamics of droplets and jets moving in a gas medium after their shock-wave ejection from the surface of a liquid and molten metal. Velocities of jets, droplet clouds, and the free surface and the deceleration parameters of droplets and jets in the gas were measured using a heterodyne laser interferometer (photon Doppler velocimetry). The induction period and the droplet sizes after breakup were determined.
