Application of Multiphase Particle Methods in Atomization and Breakup   Regimes of Liquid Jets
  Multiphase Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method has been used to study the jet breakup phenomena. It has been shown that this method is well capable of capturing different jet breakup characteristics. The value obtained for critical Weber number here in transition from dripping to jetting is a very good match to available values in literature. Jet breakup lengths are also agreeing well with several empirical correlations. Successful usage of SPH, as a comparably fast CFD solver, in jet breakup analysis helps in speeding up the numerical study of this phenomenon.
