摘要：
Experiments performed on droplets breaking up in microfluidic junctions of various angles are described. A critical length is found that controls the breakup process. This quantity depends on the flow geometry only; it is independent of the flow conditions and the fluid characteristics. A theory assuming small capillary numbers describes well the conditions that govern the breakup process.
