Collision

Re: Collision

Mmm good call, I think last time I used a plastic medicine syringe for the droplets, it was'nt bad for the control but a bit tight, what you using?

Re: Collision

Not a traffic accident

This effect is caused when a spout travelling upwards collides with a water droplet travelling downwards. It lasts for a nano second.

Great shot Pops. I had thought of trying this but never have. hmm perhaps I will give it a go.

Ash,

Look at the links I posted earlier in this thread. 6th and 7th postings iirc. The videos from the links show how it's done and the liquid scupture link show what can be achieved.

Also - an IV line (intravenous transfusion line) has a regulator which enables timing and control of the drips. IV drips are often required to be timed at a specified, prescribed number of drops per minute, hence the regulator which comes with the tubing.

To get the water droplet collisions, you need stagger the timing of the drops to cause the droplets to collide. Not easy - to put it mildly! You need to work out how many seconds between each drip then have another timed source to make the collisions.

Sod all that, good old trial and error is more fun
