Abstract
The following equation was obtained for maximum drop diameter as a result of atomization experiments on film type disintegration of aqueous millet jelly solution by a rotating disk.
dmax/r0=1.1We-3(ρQ2/σT03)0.15(Q/υr0)-0.15
This result was studied on the basis of film extension and thickness of liquid film at the leading edge of the film. The thickness of the liquid film at the leading edge of the film can be approximated by a simple relation. This relation supports the appropriateness of the results of the atomization experiment. Thickness of liquid film and maximum drcp diameter are proportional.
