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.

Transition from the saltation mode of bed load transport to the rolling mode
Lukerchenko, Nikolay ; Ivanova, Irina ; Chára, Zdeněk ; Vlasák, Pavel
Příspěvek se zabývá sedimentačním pohybem písčitých částic unášených vodou podél dna otevřeného koryta. Pro simulaci pohybu částice v kanále s drsným dnem byl použit 3D model vyvinutý autory. Podmínky změny saltačního pohybu částice na rotační (valivý) podél dna koryta byly určeny obdobně jako podle Shieldsova teorému. Hodnota smykového napětí byla určena jako funkce dvou bezrozměrných parametrů, bezrozměrného průměru částice, který je funkcí velikosti a hustoty částice a hustoty a viskozity vody, a ekvivalentní drsnosti dna. Provedené numerické řešení potvrdilo, že smykové napětí pro přechod ze saltačního do rotačního pohybu je menší než smykové napětí pro počátek pohybu sedimentující částice a je závislé na drsnosti dna koryta.
