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.
Výzkum odporové síly a točivého momentu rotující koule pohybující se v klidné vodě
Kharlamov, Alexander ; Kvurt, Y. ; Chára, Zdeněk ; Vlasák, Pavel
The paper describes results of experiments with rotating spherical particles moving quasi-steadily in the calm water. The motion of the particles was recorded by a digital video camera. The Cartesian coordinates and the angle of rotation of the particles were determined from the record of the particles motion. The dimensionless drag coefficient, drag moment coefficient and translational and rotational Reynolds numbers were calculated from the time series of the particles coordinates and angle of rotation for each recorded frame. The effect of the particles translational motion on the drag moment and the effect of the particles rotation on the drag force were evaluated from the experimental data.

Theoretical trajectories of the particle were calculated using the 2D numerical model of the rotating spherical particle moving in liquid and the proper value of the Magnus force coefficient was established from condition of the best fitting of the experimental trajectory by the calculated one.

Experimentální výzkum odporu rotačně se pohybující kulové částice
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Kvurt, Y. ; Chára, Zdeněk ; Vlasák, Pavel
Saltatory solid particles conveyed by fluid impact a channel bed from time to time. As a result of the collision the particles receive angular velocity, which gradually decreases with time. For numerical simulation of saltation it is necessary to know values of the drag rotation coefficient. In this paper experimental results of the rotating spherical particles moving in water are described. The rubber spherical balls with density near that of water were used; each of them was speeded up in a special chute that ensured that the particle rotated in a given plane. Values of the drag coefficient of the rotating spherical particle were determined in a dependence on rotation particle Reynolds number
