Parabolic velocity profile causes shape-selective drift of inertial ellipsoids
Parabolic velocity profile causes shape-selective drift of inertial ellipsoids
Understanding particle drift in suspension flows is of the highest importance in numerous engineering applications where particles need to be separated and filtered out from the suspending fluid. Commonly known drift mechanisms such as the Magnus force, Saffman force and Segré–Silberberg effect all arise only due to inertia of the …
