Description
Summary:When liquid droplets move in another liquid or in a gas phase, under certain conditions the droplets are collapsed up to form a number of smaller droplets [1-3]. This process is found in atomization, liquid extraction, absorption, separation and a number of other processes. The collapsing process is most pronounced when the droplets are moving in a uniformly rotating environment, because as the droplets move, for example, from the center to the periphery of the rotor, those parameters which contribute to the collapsing of the droplets are intensified.
