Observations of breakup processes of liquid jets using real-time X-ray radiography

“…The variation in contour of the isophote shows the detailed structure of the nondilute liquid jet. Although some pulsed x-ray photographs were obtained by Baev et al, 4 for liquid jet, the detailed inner structure of a nondilute jet during the process of breakup has never been observed before to the best of the authors' knowledge.…”

“…As indicated in a detailed review paper by Arcoumanis and Whitelaw, 1 numerous theoretical and experimental attempts have been made to study the stability and breakup phenomena of liquid jets ejected from nozzles. In recent years, Wu et al, 2 Birk and Reeves, 3 and Baev et al 4 conducted intensive studies in the experimental investigation of breakup behavior in the near-injector region. Shimizu et al 5 studied the breakup length of a high-speed jet by measuring the electrical resistance between a nozzle and a fine wire detector located in a spray jet.…”

“…Presented as Paper 87-2137 at the AIAA/SAE/ASME/ASEE 23rd Joint Propulsion Conference, San Diego, CA, June 29-July 2, 1987; received Sept. 4,1987; revision received July 7, 1989 In the theoretical analyses, the growth of initial perturbations on the liquid surface and the effects of liquid inertia, surface tension, and viscous and aerodynamic forces on the jet were considered. The earliest development of a predictive model for the jet breakup was initiated by Rayleigh.…”
