Fig. 10. Critical capillary number for shear and elongation rates; curves adapted from Grace (1982). By making simple linear interpolation we can find Cacr from the following expression: Cacr = (1- ) Cacr,shear + Cacr,elongation (12) Knowing the viscous stresses, we obtain the value, and by substituting Eqs. (8) and (12) in Eq. (11), we can predict the maximum equilibrium diameter of the drop size distribution.
