Shape of liquid drops moving in liquid media

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of various physical properties, drop size, and drop velocity on drop shape was carried out for nonoscillating liquid drops falling through stationary liquid continuous phases, and simple empirical relations involving the Weber number, Eotvos number, and viscosity ratio were obtained which enable the prediction of the eccentricity of nonoscilling liquid drops over a wide range of Reynolds numbers with average deviations of 6 to 8%.

Correlations for Prediction of Mass Transfer Coefficients in Single Drop Systems and Liquid–Liquid Extraction Columns

TL;DR: In this paper, empirical correlations for the prediction of mass transfer coefficients for single drops are presented, and the average absolute value of the relative error in the predicted values of overall dispersed-phase mass transfer coefficient from the experimental points by using the correlations for individual masstransfer coefficients is 24.5%.

Circulation in liquid drops: (A heat-transfer study)

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that circulation within a liquid drop results in an effective mass or thermal diffusivity of 2·25 times the molecular value, which is in general agreement with much reported work and with the mathematical model of K ronig and B rink which applies to liquid drops undergoing internal circulation.

Fluid dynamics and mass transfer at single droplets in liquid/liquid systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a chart is presented to make the required decisions and to enable the reader to characterise and confine a given extraction system regarding fluid dynamics and mass transfer, especially addressing the behaviour of systems dominated by Marangoni instabilities.

Mass transfer from drops and bubbles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported experimental values and semi-theoretical formulae for the rates of solution of drops and bubbles under forced convection conditions, and discussed the effect of surface active agents on the mass transfer rate.

LXXXII. Bubbles, drops, and Stokes' law. (Paper 2)

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown experimentally and theoretically that the surface-tension of the surface of the drop or bubble decreases the terminal velocity, for any radii appreciably less than a certain critical value, the drop behaves almost like a rigid sphere.
