Abstract
Capillary instability and breakup of two layers axisymmetric jets (com pound jets) are studied. The process of jet disintegration is simulate d numerically, solving the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations by the fin ite element method. The influence of the flow parameters on drop forma tion and breakup pattern is analyzed. The conclusions made are in very good agreement with the predictions of the linear stability analysis and the experimental data available.
