Abstract
The actual diameter of a jet at the breakup point is a function of the jet length. In those cases where the jet is either expanding or contr acting, it is essential to know the jet length and diameter at breakup in order to predict drop diameter accurately. Drop diameters with sin gle and multiple nodes were predicted by applying Tomotika's stability analysis and a model of jet diameter at breakup. The effects of small nozzle diameter, nozzle velocity, and viscosity of continuous phase o n drop diameter are reported Experimental drop diameters were compared with the predicted diameters; agreement was very good.
