It is well known that the Plateau-Rayleigh instability is responsible for the break-up of a liquid jet into droplets. In this process, small perturbations grow as they are convected by the jet, eventually leading to its break-up. In this thesis we investigate, both experimentally and numerically, how the stretching action of gravity affects the capillary instability mechanism. Our study focuses on liquid jets issuing from a needle into a stagnant air atmosphere, at a constant flow rate that is slightly larger than the critical flow rate at which the jet transitions from jetting to dripping. This results in a highly non-parallel meniscus region near the injector. Our main aim is to understand the role that the latter plays in the amplitude o...
