Experimental Validation of a Microscopic Ellipsoidal Particle Model Immersed in Fluid Flow

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

A simulation of ellipsoidal particles inside a fluid flow is presented and validated from our own lab size experiments where data has been recorded using a camera set-up and post-processing of the pictures. The model is based on Jeffery's equation, where the orientation and position of the particles are influenced by the surrounding fluid. Additionally, particle-particle interaction and particle-wall interaction are taken into account.
