Abstract:The present work focuses on the size effect of binary collisions of PVP droplets (viscosity 5.5 mPas). The aim was the identification of the boundaries between bouncing, coalescence, stretching and reflexive separation. These boundaries are necessary for numerical simulations of droplet collisions in spray drying processes. Therefore, droplet chains were generated by droplet generators with oscillating membrane and directed towards each other at different angles for producing binary collisions. In the experime… Show more
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.
