The paper presents a numerical analysis to predict the behavior of the flexible media by considering the effect of dynamic contact interaction between media and guide, and the aerodynamic forces. The result of numerical model is compared with that of experiment, showing a good agreement under the flexible media condition of low exit velocity. In a state of high exit velocity for the flexible media, both results of the simulation and experiments show a difference which may be needed a more accurate analysis of fluid dynamics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
