The size of “secondary” droplets when a liquid is atomized by a rotating disc

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

We investigate the “second” regime of liquid atomization by means of a rotating disc, with this regime characterized by the formation of droplets of uniform size. It is this phenomenon that is of interest for engineering processes. Formulas suitable for practical calculations are proposed.
