Motion of a Solid Large Spherical Aerosol Particle in a Single-Component Gas under the Influence of Carrier Medium

Abstract

In the article, a motion of a large solid spherical aerosol particle in a single-component gas has been investigated. Mathematical modeling has been performed The obtained formulas allow determining the time of the particle transition into the final states, and also the distances travelled by the particle. The numerical evaluations solved with the use of these formulas demonstrate that for large initial Reynolds numbers the particle stopping distance can be significant. considering inertia, particle radius and resistance of the carrier gaseous medium to its motion.
