Experimental results of investigation of the form and structure of the flow of ethanol and propylene glycol into a highly rarefied medium (vacuum) through a capillary are presented. It is shown that when liquid flows vertically along gravity into a vacuum with a pressure of residual gases significantly less than the pressure of saturated vapors at the outlet temperature, the liquid jet, in contrast to the flow into a dense gas medium, is statistically unstable, subject to bending deformations and explosive spray.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
