Terminal velocities of drops undergoing mass transfer were measured in nine systems containing anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants. Variables included drop size, formation time, number of parallel droplet‐streams, and surfactant concentration. Results were interpreted in terms of visually observed internal circulation and oscillation of the drops and some success was achieved in correlating the data obtained.
