The drag on a vertically moving grid of bars in a linearly stratified fluid
We present the results of an investigation of the drag force on a horizontal grid of bars moving vertically through a stratified fluid. A novel approach was used to calculate the drag, based on measurements of the terminal velocity of a freely rising grid. In the homogeneous case the drag coefficient of the grid is found to be approximately constant for a range of grid-based Reynolds numbers. I...
متن کاملInteraction between a pair of particles settling in a stratified fluid.
The anisotropic structure of fluidized suspensions is governed by their microstructures which are in turn determined by the dynamics of particle pair interactions. Here, we present a numerical simulation of particle interaction in linearly stratified fluids. It is shown that unlike homogeneous fluids, stratification results in the attraction of particles settling abreast. The attraction between...
متن کاملWave drag on floating bodies.
We measure the deceleration of liquid nitrogen drops floating at the surface of a liquid bath. On water, the friction force is found to be about 10 to 100 times larger than on a solid substrate, which is shown to arise from wave resistance. We investigate the influence of the bath viscosity and show that the dissipation decreases as the viscosity is increased, owing to wave damping. The measure...
متن کاملThe drag of a body moving transversely in a confined stratified fluid
The slow motion of a body through a stratified fluid bounded laterally by insulating walls is studied for both large and small Peclet number. The Taylor column and its associated boundary and shear layers are very different from the analogous problem in a rotating fluid. In particular, the large Peclet number problem is non-linear and exhibits mixing of statically unstable fluid layers, and hen...
متن کاملA numerical study of the dynamics of a particle settling at moderate Reynolds numbers in a linearly stratified fluid
In this paper, the transient settling dynamics of a spherical particle sedimenting in a linearly stratified fluid is investigated by performing fully resolved direct numerical simulations. The settling behaviour is quantified for different values of Reynolds, Froude and Prandtl numbers. It is demonstrated that the transient settling dynamics is correlated to the induced Lagrangian drift of flow...
