Controlling the breakup of spiralling jets
Results from experiments, nonlinear simulations and linear stability analysis
We experimentally and numerically study the dynamics of a liquid jet issued from a rotating orifice, whose breakup is regulated by a vibrating piezo element. The helical trajectory of the spiralling jet yields fictitious forces varying along the jet whose longitudinal projections

Using a slender-jet approach, we numerically investigate the control of jet breakup using temperature modulation at the nozzle with a specified frequency and amplitude. Our results show that temperature modulation does lead to instability through capillary and Marangoni stress ...

Prilling is the industrial process in which thin jets of a molten substance break up into drops and the subsequent solidification of the droplets into solids due to cooling when they fall down in the prilling tower. Prilling is widely used for efficient production of a variety of

A cylindrical column of fluid breaks into drops under the action of surface tension when other forces are relatively small. This phenomenon is called the capillary break-up. Since the introduction of the seminal theory of inertial-capillary jet instability by Rayleigh in the late
