Notizen:
The breakup of a low speed horizontal jet is investigated. Weber's theory for the Newtonian jet is extended to a linear viscoelastic fluid. The theory predicts a dependence of breakup length on the elasticity number. Breakup lengths are measured for low concentration solutions of polyisobutylene in tetralin. Two molecular weights, several concentrations, and five capillary diameters were studied. A single correlation is obtained for all data which gives the breakup length as a function of the elasticity number, and the parameters of Weber's theory. At constant values of the Ohnesorge number and Weber number, the breakup length decreases with increasing elasticity number. The effect of the length of the capillary is studied. At large elasticity numbers short tubes give rise to slightly shorter breakup lengths than long tubes under identical flow conditions.
