THE FREQUENCY VARIATION OF PARTICLE OSCILLATIONS DUE TO TEMPERATURE OF LIQUID IN SPONTANEOUS DISPERSION
要約
Thermography Small particles and powders spontaneously disperse on liquid surfaces when they touch the interface for the first time. This dispersion is very fast and looks like fireworks. The reason for this phenomenon is due to the combined effect of the capillary force, buoyant weight of the particle, and the viscous drag that are acting on the particles when they meet the liquid surface. The particles undergo oscillations normal to the interface before they come to the equilibrium position on the interface. These oscillations, in turn, induce a flow on the interface which disperses the particles radially outward. This paper investigates, experimentally, the influence of temperature of the liquid on which this dispersion occurs. The results show that the frequency of oscillations of the particles decreased with the increase in the temperature of the liquid. It is because the magnitude of capillary force that the particle experiences also decreased when the temperature of the liquid increased.
