Abstract: | This paper describes the construction of and the data obtained from a light transmissometer capable of making mean drop size measurements within about ±15%. The experimental venturi had a throat flow cross-section of 12 in. by 14 in. and overall length in the flow direction was 15 ft. It was found that the Nukiyama-Tanasawa equation gave accurate estimates of Sauter mean drop size only for a throat velocity of 150 ft/sec. |
