In this two-part study, the relationships between the width of the cloud droplet size distribution and the microphysical processes and cloud characteristics of nonprecipitating shallow cumulus clouds are investigated using large-eddy simulations. In Part I, simulations are run with a bin microphysics scheme and the relative widths (standard deviation divided by mean diameter) of the simulated c...

-A stochastic model based on the Boltzmann kinetic equation and employing the comprehensive treatment of the dynamics of binary droplet collisions is suggested to describe the droplet size and spatial distribution in dense spray. The model is valid for highly non-equilibrium impinging sprays in which the inertia of the droplets is very high and dynamic coupling with the gas is low. A Monte Carl...

Nanoemulsions possess powerful nano-scale properties that make them attractive for diverse applications such as drug delivery, food supplements, nanoparticle synthesis and pharmaceutical formulation. However, there is little knowledge in nanoemulsion literature about controlling and predicting droplet size. In this article, we propose a scaling relation to predict the dependence of nanoemulsion...

Measurements of spray volume and droplet size are critical to evaluating the movement and transport of applied sprays associated with both crop production and protection practices and vector control applications for public health. Any sampling device used for this purpose will have an efficiency of collection that is a function of the sampling device itself, the droplet size of the spray being ...

Scaling laws for droplet break-up in stirred emulsifier-containing water-in-oil emulsions with dispersed volume fractions up to 70% were evaluated. The emulsions were stirred with a standard turbine impeller and the droplet diameters were determined as a function of time both microscopically and via turbidity measurements. The droplet size was found to decrease very slowly: a steady state was r...

abstract the objective of present study was to evaluate pharmacokinetic parameters of dibudipine phytosolve after oral administration in rats. the solubility test was carried out to select suitable oily solvent for dibudipine. phytosolve formulation was prepared with a medium chain triglyceride (mct) oil (20%), soybean phospholipids (5%) and a 70% fructose solution (75%). the effect of polyol c...

The purpose of this study was to produce oil in water Nano-emulsion by ultrasonication, and investigate the influence of Inulin and β-cyclodextrin on the prosperities of Nano-emulsion and morphology of spray dried microcapsules. The results showed that emulsion droplet size in samples containing β-cyclodextrin (8.28±0.11 nm) was less than Inulin samples (97.12±4.2 nm). Considering SEM photos, β...
