THE FRACTAL DIMENSION OF AN OIL SPRAY

We study the fractal dimension of the contour of the liquid-gas interface in a spray. Our images include both the linking region and the break-up region, and are obtained with a high-resolution shadowgraph technique. This means that the images can then be subjected to an intensity filtering, equivalent to a threshold analysis, that enables the establishment of the fractal range.
