A single optical fiber probe (OFP) is used to measure the velocity and size of droplet falling
in the air. By analyzing the interference waves formed by two reflected lights from the droplet …

Wire mesh packing is widely used in the rotating packed bed (RPB). Packing arrangements
have been proven to influence the mass transfer of an RPB. However, the liquid dispersion …

Shotcrete finds extensive applications in civil engineering, from repair and rehabilitation to
new constructions. Nevertheless, shotcrete construction frequently suffers from placement …

Fiber optical reflectometer (FOR) is a novel technique for dense droplet detection that
combines conventional phase detection with non-invasive velocity measurement …

For research as well as for process control, reliable drop size, velocity, and flux
measurements are desirable in particular in dense, high-speed flows. A new optical probe …

A twin-fluid nozzle was proposed for low-pressure atomization. The nozzle is featured by
swirling air flows in the mixing chamber. Liquid medium is thereby inhaled due to the …

Ozone is known to be a powerful oxidant with low persistence and has been shown to
possess biocidal activity against a wide number of fungi and bacteria. These properties …

An experimental setup has been created to allow measurements of the properties of the gas
phase, the liquid phase and the mixture in a pressure-atomised spray of water, in terms of …

High-velocity air-water flows are frequently observed at hydraulic structures, eg, spillways
and low-level outlets, and they are characterized by a strong interaction between the two …

The droplet velocity and diameter significantly affect both the spatial drift loss and the
interfacial deposition behaviors, thus determining the ultimate utilization efficiency during …
