Recently, fire extinguishing systems based on water mists have been attracting public attentions in marine engineering. Performance of fire extinguishing systems is very strongly influenced by the size and distribution of spayed water mists. Therefore, the present study has developed droplet analyzing method based on image processing. The morphological technique based on partial curvature information of pre-processed images with relaxation method was adopted for recognition and separation of overlapped particles. Tested results showed that the present method may be reliable for the analysis of the size and distribution of droplets in spray flow of fire extinguishing systems based water mists.
