Abstract The influence of gravity on the stability behavior of falling liquid strands without external excitation was investigated. To this end, a mathematic‐physical model was developed for the analysis of the stability behavior of liquid strands in the range of low to higher viscosity, the main emphasis being on gravity. The characteristics of the model are discussed and, finally, the stability criterion is derived for the quantitative determination of the point of disintegration.
