Dynamics of jet breakup and the resultant drop size distribution: effect of nozzle size and impingement velocity

Pavan Kumar Kirar, Nikhil Kumar, Kirti Chandra Sahu

We conduct systematic experiments to investigate the dynamics of liquid jet breakup and the resulting droplet size distribution, emphasizing the influence of liquid jet velocity an…

Droplet breakup and size distribution in an airstream -- effect of inertia

Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Pavan Kumar Kirar, Lakshmana Dora Chandrala +1

We experimentally investigate the morphology and breakup of a droplet as it descends freely from a height and encounters an airstream. The size distributions of the child droplets…

An experimental investigation of droplet morphology in swirl flow

Pavan Kumar Kirar, Surendra Kumar Soni, Pankaj S. Kolhe +1

The interaction of a droplet with a swirling airstream is investigated experimentally by shadowgraphy and particle image velocimetry techniques. In swirl flow, the droplet experien…

Droplet size distribution in a swirl airstream using in-line holography technique

Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Pavan Kumar Kirar, Lakshmana Dora Chandrala +1

We investigate the morphology and size distribution of satellite droplets resulting from the interaction of a freely falling water droplet with a swirling airstream of different st…

Deformation and breakup of droplets in an oblique continuous air stream

Surendra Kumar Soni, Pavan Kumar Kirar, Pankaj Kolhe +1

We experimentally investigate the deformation and breakup of droplets interacting with an oblique continuous air stream. A high-speed imaging system is employed to record the traje…
