Wall effects on terminal falling velocity of spherical particles moving in a Carreau model fluid

Abstract: Experimental verification of our previous numerical simulation of wall effects on the terminal falling velocity of spherical particles moving slowly along the axis of a cylindrical vessel filled with a Carreau model fluid is presented. Dependences of the wall correction factor F W on the sphere to tube ratio d/D and on the dimensionless Carreau model parameters m, Λ, and η r were obtained using a finite element method. Calculated data of the wall correction factor were compared with the results of our new fall… Show more

“…When d < 0, there is penetration and, consequently, the contact force magnitude is determined as kcd, where kc is the penalty coefficient and n is the unit vector normal to the interface, n ≈ ∇d ∥∇d∥ . The second term considers the approximation effect near the walls; 39,40 this force is activated at a distance equal to δ of the radius of the sphere, expressed as a percentage of the radius of the sphere, where βc is a constant coefficient. A more sophisticated mechanism in order to consider the lubrication effects when the sphere is very close to the wall could be developed.…”

“…No precise data are available because all of the data were presented in graphical form. Many other investigators, for example, Delidis and Stamatoudis [ 3 ], Lali, et al [ 10 ], and Strnadel et al [ 22 ], presented numerous experimental results on boundary effects, but sufficient details have not been reported, such as the density of the fluid or the particle and the rheological parameters of liquid. Uhlherr and Chhabra [ 23 ] and Chhabra et al [ 24 ] provided their results in the form of F w -Re relationship, which is also inadequate for this paper.…”
