Have you ever wondered what happens inside a jet of fluid as it breaks into droplets? Such events are not commonly or readily measured. This video uses a double emulsion—in which immiscible fluids are encapsulated into a multi-layer droplet—to demonstrate interior fluid flow during the Plateau-Rayleigh instability. The innermost drops and the fluid encapsulating them have a low surface tension between them, thanks to the addition of a surfactant to the inner drops. As a result, the inner drops are easily deformed by motion in the fluid surrounding them. Flow on the left side of the jet is clearly parabolic, similar to pipe flow. Closer to the pinch-off, the inner droplets shift to vertical lines, indicating that the interior flow’s velocity is constant across the jet. After pinch-off, the inner droplets return to a spherical shape because they are no longer being deformed by fluid movement around them. The coiling of the inner drops inside the bigger one is due to the electrical charges in the surfactant used. (Video credit: L. L. A. Adams and D. A. Weitz)
