The local variation of droplet diameter in a stirred tank was measured in the vicinity of the impeller and at another region. The degree of difference in droplet diameter between regions increases with the impeller speed. A correlation equation between the local difference in droplet diameter and the frequencies of coalescence and circulation of the droplet was derived according to the circulation interaction model. The degree of local difference in droplet diameter was found to be controlled strongly by the ratio of coalescence to circulation frequency.
