Capillary and acceleration wave breakup of liquid jets in axial-flow airstreamsEmpirical correlations of reciprocal mean drop diameter with airstream momentum were derived from capillary and acceleration wave breakup of liquid jets atomized by cross stream injection into axial flow airstreams. A scanning radiometer was used to obtain data over an airstream momentum range of 3.7 to 25.7 g/sq cm sec. Transition from capillary to acceleration wave breakup was obtained at a critical Weber-Reynolds number of 1,000,000.
