Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The retardation of a droplet chain by air resistance has been examined. Lee's method gives nomograms for the boundary-layer thickness, velocity distribution near the chain, and chain retardation. Experiments show that the model is applicable to important cases.
