Notes:
A correlation is presented for predicting the drop volume for injection at low velocities of one Newtonian liquid into a second stationary immiscible Newtonian liquid in the absence of surface active agents. The analysis, which is based on a two-stage process of drop formation, predicts drop volumes within an average error of 11% for fifteen liquid-liquid systems covering a wider range of variables than any previous study. Although the equation was tested primarily with mutually saturated liquids, if correctly predicted drop size for two systems where mass transfer was occurring.
