Unforced Rayleigh instability of an immersed liquid jet
Motivated by the occurrence of the injection of liquids in various technical processes, we study the capillary instability of a liquid jet surrounded by another liquid. The study focuses on the natural developing Rayleigh instability, hence without an imposed perturbation. We also point out the infl...

| Summary: | Motivated by the occurrence of the injection of liquids in various technical processes, we study the capillary instability of a liquid jet surrounded by another liquid. The study focuses on the natural developing Rayleigh instability, hence without an imposed perturbation. We also point out the influence of viscosity on the main drop diameter, resulted after jet breakup, and on the breakup length itself. Modifications brought by a decrease of the capillary nozzle are also emphasized for a particular case. |
