## Abstract Experiments aimed at studying the mechanisms of agglomerate breakup due to the application of a simple shear flow field were performed in a cone and plate transparent device. Spherical compacts of carbon black (diameters 1โ2 mm) in a range of different porosites were used in the experim

## Abstract The extent of dispersion of solid agglomerates in hydrodynamic flow fields is believed to depend on the material properties as well as flow conditions. The purpose of this study has been to investigate the mechanism of agglomerate breakup in simple shear flows and to correlate the vario
Dispersion of sparse (low solids content) agglomerates by hydrodynamic shear is addressed both experimentally and theoretically. A model for the kinetics of the erosion of homogeneous sparse agglomerates is developed. Experiments carried out using agglomerates of silica and poly(dimethyl siloxane) f
The coalescence efficiency of two droplets in simple shear flow was experimentally investigated. The effects of the radius of the colliding droplets, the viscosity of the continuous medium, and the radii ratio on the coalescence efficiency were studied. The coalescence efficiency was determined from
