COLLISIONS OF LIQUID DROPS WITH LIQUIDS. PART 2 - CRATER DEPTH IN FLUID IMPACTS

Abstract

Results of the use of high-speed and low-speed motion picture photography and of high-speed color photography to determine the flow configuration of both the drop and target liquids, when a liquid drop impinges against a body of liquid, are described. A theoretical treatment of the depth of the cavity that forms in a target liquid as a result of the impact of a liquid drop is developed. Results of preliminary tests of the equation are presented and discussed.
