Summary, in English

A PIV method has been used to determine the internal motion in an oil drop during formation and to validate a numerical simulation of the drop formation process. The PIV system included a microscope attached to the camera, which gave a focal depth of 50 µm and a possibility to measure the velocity in the centre cross section of the drop. Oil was forced through a capillary with a diameter of 200 µm into a channel with a cross-flowing continuous phase that induced a shear at the interface of the forming drop, which resulted in a rotational motion inside the drop. The angular velocity in the drop reached a maximum after 1/4 of the drop formation time and approached a steady state before drop detachment when a neck was formed above the capillary opening. The velocity of oil out of the capillary was also investigated. A clear dependence on the pressure inside the forming drop was obtained.
