description Present work is devoted to physical and mathematical modeling of the secondary disintegration of a liquid jet and gas-dynamic breakup of droplets in high-speed air flows. In this work the analysis of the experiments of water droplet breakup in the supersonic flow with Mach numbers up to M = 3 was carried out. The influence of shock wave presence in the flow on the intensity of droplets gas-dynamic breakup is shown. A developed empirical model is presented. It allows to predict the distribution of droplet diameters and velocities depending on the gas flow conditions, as well as the physical properties of the liquid. The effect of the Weber and Reynolds numbers on the rate of droplets gas-dynamic breakup at various Mach numbers is shown. The obtained data can be useful in the development of mathematical models for the numerical simulation of two-phase flows in the combined Lagrange-Euler formulation.
