Abstract

An experimental technique is described for estimating the coalescence frequency of droplets in an agitated liquid‐liquid system. Results are presented for dilute aqueous dispersions in toluene. Quantitative estimates of the coalescence frequency are based upon a simple model proposed to describe the coalescence process. The coalescence frequency is shown to increase markedly with increase in impeller speed and to a lesser extent with increase in the dispersed‐phase volume.

## Abstract Experimental studies have been performed to assess the effect of drop charge on turbulent drop coalescence. Although it is well known that surface charge can affect coalescence rates of Brownian particles in a quiescent medium, no studies have been found in the literature which explicit
