Abstract

The drop size distribution in immiscible fluid mixtures following shear deformation was studied. The shear-induced coalescence was determined to be constant at constant temperatures and decreased at large values temperature. The drop size distribution was found to broaden due to coalescence whereas greater deformation at high shear rates caused the drop-size distribution to remain narrow.
