v = ^41→A)" [3.42]
Here φe is again 0.50 and n is 8.6. Lp 0.186 g∕ml is the density difference
between water and oil; g is gravitational acceleration, d is the mean diameter of
water droplets, and ηc is the viscosity of oil phase.
Figure 3.23 Front position sedimentation rate of emulsion sample 3
The experimental sedimentation velocity of water droplets for sample 1 with
Eq. [3.40] is 0.075 cm∕h, while the predicted value from Eq. [3.42] is 0.0105 cm∕h.
The larger experimental value implies that the water drops sediment with a larger
