Notes:
The interfacial areas formed in various immiscible liquid pairs by an orifice mixer were measured by a photoelectric method, which had been calibrated photographically. In addition to the variation of the liquid pair, total flow rate, volume fraction of the dispersed phase, and the orifice diameter, the pipe diameter of the mixing orifice was also varied. It was found that the formation of interfacial area could be correlated as a function of the change in kinetic energy across the mixing orifice, the energy required to overcome the viscous forces within the dispersed phase, and the volume fraction of the dispersed phase.
