Collision of a rotating spherical particle with flat wall in liquid
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Kvurt, Y. ; Chára, Zdeněk ; Vlasák, Pavel
The collision of the rotating spherical particle with a flat wall in liquid was studied experimentally. The glass and steel beads rotating in water and silicon oil were used. A high-speed video system recorded the bead motion before and after the collision. It was shown that the restitution coefficient depends not only on the Stokes number but also on the particle angular velocity; the restitution coefficient decreases with increasing of the rotational Reynolds number and decreasing of the Stokes number. These results can be useful in modelling of the two-phase flows near solid boundaries.

Influence of the spheroid prolongation on the drag force
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Keita, Ibrahima ; Kvurt, Y. ; Miles, Jiří
The drag force acting on a spheroid moving perpendicularly to its axis of rotation in water was studied experimentally. Along the spheroid axis, which is normal to its axis of rotation, a round narrow hole was bored. The spheroid moved along a thin vertical thread stretched in water. A video system recorded the spheroid motion and the spheroid velocity was determined from the record. The drag force coefficient was calculated from the balance of forces acting on the spheroid. Two oblate, two prolate spheroids and one sphere with ratio of the axes 0.67; 0.81; 1.33; 2 and I (sphere), respectively, with approximately the same volumes, were used. The friction coefficient between the thread and spheroid was determined from the comparison of the experimental and calculated motions of the sphere, for which the drag force coefficient is known. The dependence of the drag force coefficient of the spheroid on the ratio of its semi-axes was obtained.

Experimental evaluation of the drag torque, drag force and Magnus force acting on a rotating prolate spheroid
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Keita, Ibrahima ; Kvurt, Y. ; Miles, Jiří
The drag torque, drag force and Magnus force acting on a spheroid rotating around its axis of symmetry and moving perpendicularly to this axis in initially quiescent water were studied using experimental data and numerical simulation. The prolate spheroid with ratio of the axes 4/3 was speeded up in special device, which ensured the required rotational and translational velocity in the given plane. A video system was used to record the spheroid motion in water. Using the video records the spheroid translational and angular velocities and trajectory of its center were determined and compared with the results of the numerical simulation. The dependences of the coefficients of the drag torque, drag force and Magnus force on the Reynolds number and dimensionless angular velocity were obtained.

Experimentální výzkum odporu rotačně se pohybující kulové částice
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Kvurt, Y. ; Chára, Zdeněk ; Vlasák, Pavel
Pevná částice pohybující se saltací v proudu kapaliny se v různých časových intervalech dostává do kontaktu se dnem kanálu. V důsledku kolize částice se dnem je iniciován rotační pohyb s proměnnou úhlovou rychlostí, která postupně v čase klesá. Pro numerické simulace saltačního pohybu je nutná znalost rotačního odporového koeficientu. V článku jsou prezentovány výsledky experimentálního výzkumu rotačního pohybu částic. Částice s hustotou blízkou hustotě kapaliny byly vypouštěny do kapaliny pomocí speciální rampy, která zajišťovala rovinnou rotaci. Hodnoty odporového koeficientu rotačně se pohybující částice byly určovány v závislosti na Reynoldsově čísle rotačního pohybu
