The jet penetration process depends on the jet velocity and jet to droplet diameter ratio. At small jet to diameter ratios and large enough jet velocities, the jet penetrated through the droplet. At larger jet to droplet diameter, the droplet fragmentation becomes more significant, with large droplet deformation. For this experiment, different types of breakup process are categorized, and theoretical explanations are provided.enThe copyright for the paper content remains with the author.Fluid MechanicsDroplet BreakupAtomizationRayleigh-Taylor InstabilityArticle
