Abstract

AbstractAn experimental study has been made of the effects of anionic, cationic and nonionic surface active agents on jet length, jet contraction and drop size resulting from the formation and breakup of liquid jets in another immiscible liquid, while undergoing mass transfer.Correlations previously established for uncontaminated systems with various rates of mass transfer successfully fitted the present data, when used with the diminished value of interfacial tension caused by the surfactant. Variables included nozzle size, flow rate, and type and concentration of surfactant. Data were obtained from measurements on over 3,000 drops, plus jet lengths and jet diameters from 501 photographs.
