Abstract
Current available theories about thickness of air film trapped in between droplet and bath of miscible liquids can also be explained in terms of conservation of energy. Though the authors proved the governing equation can be derived from energy equation, the detailed explanation is not available in any source. Detailed derivation of the thin air film thickness in miscible liquids and stages of coalescence are presented in the paper.
