Uniform droplets generated by Rayleigh breakup of liquid jet are widely applied in science and engineering. The droplets are produced by imposing a periodic velocity perturbation on a micro-sized liquid jet. In practical situations, the frequency of droplet generation is not perfectly steady like th...
