Abstract
The object of the investigation was to study the effect of various physical parameters on the drop size distribution formed in an atomization process for liquid with non-Newtonian rheological behavior. This study was motivated by the potential application of the Atomization Suspension Technique in ultimate disposal and the observation that suspensions and slurries often behave like non-Newtonian fluid. The principal findings are: The freezing technique is an account method of determining liquid drop sizes; The drop size distribution of non-Newtonian liquid can be described in terms of square-root normal distribution; and A stochastic model was successfully developed for the breakup mechanism in penumatic atomization.
