Formation and manipulation of ferrofluid droplets at a microfluidic T-junction (2010, background): “The flow rates were chosen to cover the transition from the squeezing to the dripping regime [65–67].”
Production of uniform droplets using membrane, microchannel and microfluidic emulsification devices (2012, methodology): “The capillary number calculated for the continuous phase, Cac, can be used to predict a dominant mechanism of droplet formation: Cac 0.002 within squeezing regime and 0.01 Cac 0.3 within dripping regime (Xu et al., 2008).”
Two-phase microfluidic flows (2011, background): “When the two phase flow is within the transient regime between squeezing and dripping, the dynamics of droplet breakup is controlled by both of the mechanisms, and the droplet size can be described by the following scaling law (Xu et al., 2008):”
