Abstract
Fragmentation of mercury drops falling through a bubbly aqueous liquid by a pressure shock wave was investigated by means of a shock tube capable of operating at driver pressures up to 3 MPa. The responses to moderately strong shock waves (up to 1.7 MPa) were photographed by a high-speed camera at rates of up to 4400 frames per second. The results show the existence of a critical Weber number, (We)cr = 17, for drop fragmentation. Qualitative characterization of the shock-drop interactions for single mercury drops is provided.
