A study was made of the jet length, jet contraction, and size of drops resulting from the formation and break‐up of liquid jets in another Newtonian, immiscible liquid. Drop size and jet contraction were correlated with system parameters, but attempts to correlate the jet length proved unsuccessful. Data were obtained from measurements of 4202 drops and 294 jet lengths and diameters on 294 photographs representing 92 runs. Variables included nozzle size, flow rate, and physical properties from six Newtonian liquid‐liquid systems.
