Droplets in a sentence

Charged droplets are separated by one or more uncharged "guard droplets" to minimize electrostatic repulsion between neighbouring droplets.

Generally, masks can prevent droplets spreading from an infected patient and others inhaling droplets if they are within one metre of a coughing individual.

Sneezing, for example, can expel thousands of large droplets at a relatively high velocity, whereas coughing generates 10-100 times fewer droplets.

Although droplets are manipulated in confined microfluidic channels, since the control on droplets is not independent, it should not be confused as "digital microfluidics".

As a tropospheric cloud matures, the dense water droplets may combine to produce larger droplets.

Drizzle occurs when the humidity of fog attains 100% and the minute cloud droplets begin to coalesce into larger droplets.

Nimbostratus cloud droplets can also be quite large, up to 0.015 mm radius. citation These larger droplets associated with vertically developed clouds are better able to trap the long-wave radiation thus mitigating the cooling effect to some degree.

Note 3: The diameters of the droplets constituting the dispersed phase usually range from approximately 10 nm to 100 μm; i.e., the droplets may exceed the usual size limits for colloidal particles.

The accretion rate of supercooled water droplets onto the hailstone depends on the relative velocities between these water droplets and the hailstone itself.

The droplets are present in high concentrations (some estimates are as high as 10¹⁰ droplets per cm³).

The increased pressure results in those droplets evaporating and the resulting water vapor condensing on the larger droplets.

The vapour is then ignited by the heat from the compressed air in the combustion chamber, the droplets continue to vaporise from their surfaces and burn, getting smaller, until all the fuel in the droplets has been burnt.

Here they found a three-fold reduction of infectivity when droplets containing the were left on the coating for 5 minutes, and, after 10 minutes, the infectivity fell to zero.

Humans may acquire the virus after inhaling birds' respiratory droplets or exposure of their mucus membranes to bird feces, saliva or contaminated surfaces.

In an early trailer for Tears of the Kingdom, a large stone carving was prominently displayed, featuring a mysterious figure surrounded by seven objects in the shape of water droplets.

In the case of droplets, the wax-coated cones facilitate effortless droplet movement on cicada wings.

It’s true, we all love an essential oil, whether it’s to sprinkle into a warm bath at the end of the day, pop into a diffuser to give our bedroom a spa feel, or dab a few droplets onto our pillow before bed.

Kissing and sex explain some of it, but microbes could also be transmitted through droplets spewed by coughs and sneezes, or they could be picked up from contaminated surfaces.

Murder Man is just as lethal as Slade and can travel through blood droplets, meaning Rose had no chance of outrunning the twisted copy of her father.

Particulate matter contains microscopic solids or liquid droplets that are so small that they can be inhaled and cause serious health problems, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
