Abstract

The fragmentation of a drop of liquid (water, alcohol, glycerin) under the action of an air shock wave with a pressure of 0.2 and 3.2 atmg is studied experimentally and theoretically. The experiments are carried out using an air shock tube, and the liquid drop diameter is approximately 0.6 and 2 mm. The process is studied using high-speed video recording. Dispersed liquid particles from ≈5 μm in size are detected, liquid particle size distributions are plotted, and the particle velocities are determined. The experimental results are compared with the results of computational–theoretical estimation.
