Elasticity affects the shock-induced aerobreakup of a polymeric droplet

Navin Kumar Chandra, Shubham Sharma, Saptarshi Basu +1

Boger fluids are viscoelastic liquids having constant viscosity for a broad range of shear rates. They are commonly used to separate the effects of liquid elasticity from viscosity…

Aerodynamic bag breakup of a polymeric droplet

Navin Kumar Chandra, Shubham Sharma, Saptarshi Basu +1

The aerodynamic breakup of a polymeric droplet in the bag breakup regime is investigated experimentally and compared with the result of the Newtonian droplet. To understand the eff…

Shock induced atomisation of a liquid metal droplet

Shubham Sharma, Navin Kumar Chandra, Aloke Kumar +1

The present study uses Galinstan as a test fluid to investigate the shock-induced aerobreakup of a liquid metal droplet in a high Weber number regime (We ~ 400 - 8000). Atomization…

On Secondary Atomization and blockage of surrogate cough droplets in single and multi-layer face masks

Shubham Sharma, Roven Pinto, Abhishek Saha +2

By now it is well-understood that the usage of facemasks provides protection from transmission of viral loads through exhalation and inhalation of respiratory droplets. Therefore,…
