Droplet breakup phenomenon depends on several factors such as viscosity, velocity, pressure difference, and geometry. The most important parameter for droplet breakup is the Weber number (We) which is the ratio of disrupting aerodynamics forces to the surface tension forces. Volume of fluid (VOF) model is used in present work to simulate the droplet breakup. This work presents the effect of liquid velocity, viscosity, and orifice diameters on droplet formation and breakup. © 2014 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 publisher: Trans Tech Publications Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84914171116&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMM.625.394&partnerID=40&md5=f71a174fb1917ff9cad8b15557b580ea id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.625.394 full_text_status: none publication: Applied Mechanics and Materials volume: 625 pagerange: 394-397 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783038351818 issn: 16609336 citation: Muhammad, A. and Pendyala, R. and Rahmanian, N.
