In this paper, we numerically investigate the effects of surfactant on dropdrop interactions in a 2D shear flow using a coupled level-set and immersed interface approach proposed in (Xu et al., J. Comput. Phys., 212 (2006), 590–616). We find that surfactant plays a critical and nontrivial role in drop-drop interactions. In particular, we find that the minimum distance between the drops is a non...

drop size distribution in a mixer-settler is an essential design parameter, as obtaining drop size distribution will result in optimum performance of equipment. in this paper for obtaining drop size, several experiments have been performed with a single stage horizontal mixer-settler. a video technique has been used in order to measure the drop size in the mixer-settler with the help of a digit...
