Low Reynolds number flow theory finds wide application in such diverse fields as sedimentation, fluidization, particle-size classification, dust and mist collection, filtration, centrifugation, polymer and suspension rheology, flow through porous media, colloid science, aerosol and hydrosal technology, lubrication theory, blood flow, Brownian motion, geophysics, meteorology, and a host of other disciplines. This text provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the physical and mathematical principles underlying such phenomena, heretofore available only in the original literature.read more

Momentum and heat transfer phenomena of spheroid particles at moderate Reynolds and Prandtl numbers
Nanda Kishore,Sai Gu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived simple correlations for the total drag coefficient and the average Nusselt number of isolated spheroid particles based on present numerical results which can be used in new applications.
