Oscillating Droplets and Incompressible Liquids: Slow-Motion Visualization of Experiments with Fluids
Vollmer, Michael; Mollmann, Klaus-Peter
Physics Education, v47 n6 p664-679 Nov 2012
We present fascinating simple demonstration experiments recorded with high-speed cameras in the field of fluid dynamics. Examples include oscillations of falling droplets, effects happening upon impact of a liquid droplet into a liquid, the disintegration of extremely large droplets in free fall and the consequences of incompressibility. (Contains 18 figures.)
