Abstract
An analytical treatment for the sedimentation rate of disordered suspensions is presented in the context of a resistance problem. From the calculation it is confirmed that the lubrication effect is important in contrast to the suggestion by Brady and Durlofsky (Phys.Fluids Vol.31, 717 (1988)). The calculated sedimentation rate agrees well with the experimental results in all range of the volume fraction.
