The dimensionless Weber number is equal to density times velocity-squared times diameter, divided by this value. The Marangoni effect is caused by variations in this property, and the YoungLaplace equation relates the difference in pressure with it. Jaeger's method for calculating its value involves producing a small bubble, and the recently developed drop collapse method uses a smaller volume of sample than the du Nouy ring method. Often measured in Joules per meters squared, it is caused by unbalanced intermolecular forces, and its value is decreased by rising temperatures, in addition to the presence of soaps, detergents, and other surfactants.
