Energy dissipation of water drops striking an undisturbed water surface

Pages 367-369 | Received 12 Aug 1963, Published online: 15 Dec 2016
 

Abstract

The impact of water drops on an undisturbed water surface is studied by cine shadow photography. Quantitative analysis of the film data shows a quasi-exponential rate of energy dissipation away from the impact region.DOI: 10.1111/j.2153-3490.1963.tb01400.x
