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.
