Forces on a finite-sized particle located close to a wall in a linear shear flow

Abstract: To understand and better model the hydrodynamic force acting on a finite-sized particle moving in a wall-bounded linear shear flow, here we consider the two limiting cases of (a) a rigid stationary spherical particle in a linear wall-bounded shear flow and (b) a rigid spherical particle in rectilinear motion parallel to a wall in a quiescent ambient flow. In the present computations, the particle Reynolds number ranges from 2 to 250 at separation distances to the wall from nearly sitting on the wall to far awa… Show more

“…The asymmetry of the vorticity distribution in the wake of the sphere contributes to an asymmetric induced flow. This generates a lift force on the particle directed away from the slope [13]. When Re is smaller than 100, the vortex in the wake behind the sphere is stable, as shown in Figs.…”

“…Thus, in our cases, C l = C l,W − C l,M . Zeng et al [13] obtained an empirical relation, 0.313 + 0.812e (−0.125Re 0.77 ) , for the translation-induced lift coefficient when the particle is in contact with a vertical wall but without contact forces. In our case with contact forces, C l,W = 0.41 + 1.2e (−0.17Re 0.64 ) gave a good fit.…”
