Hello!

I'm doing some simulations with water-drops in air using interFoam.

If I decrease the drop size, what is physically happening?

I'm not sure how to describe this in terms of dimensionless number (if there are any).

Is there a dimensionless number how describes the ratio of any kind of force related to surface forces, who includes a length scale?
(Except the Grasshof-number, as buoyancy is negligible.)

Have a nice day.
