Abstract

A droplet deformation and breakup (DDB) model is proposed to study shear-type mechanism of spray droplets in pure extentional flows. A numerical solution of the DDB model equation is obtained using a fourth-order Runge-Kutta initial-value solver. The predictions of the DDB model as well as semianalytical and the Taylor analogy models are compared with the experimental data (Krzeczkowski, 1980) for shear breakup, which depict the dimensionless deformation of the drop vs dimensionless time.
