  • Abstract
    In this communication we propose a correlation for the drag coefficient on a liquid drop suddenly exposed to a high-speed airstream. The correlation is a bi-power law in the Ohnesorge and Weber numbers. The correlation predicts the acceleration of the drop in terms of known quantities.
