Evaporation of a freely floating droplet in an airstream: effects of temperature, humidity, and shape oscillations
Shubham Chakraborty, Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Aman John Tudu +2
We present a comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigation of the evaporation dynamics of freely levitated water droplets in an upward airstream under varying temperatur…

Drop size distribution from laboratory experiments based on single-drop fragmentation and comparison with aerial in-situ measurements
Shubham Chakraborty, Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Lalsingh Devsoth +4
Laboratory experiments and theoretical modelling are conducted to determine the raindrop size distribution (DSD) resulting from distinct fragmentation processes under various upwar…

Droplet breakup morphologies and the resultant size distribution in an opposed-flow airstream at different Weber numbers
Shubham Chakraborty, Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Lakshmana Dora Chandrala +1
The present study investigates the morphology and breakup dynamics of a freely falling drop in a vertical airstream using shadowgraphy and in-line holography. The in-line holograph…
