## Abstract An empirical relation __C__~d~ = 2.7 ร 10^5^ R^โ1^ is given between drag coefficient, __C__~a~, and Reynolds number __R__, for a captive, nominally spherical, rubber balloon, for the range log~10~ __R__ = 5.1 to 5.8. It is suggested that the drag increases as the shape of the balloon pr
The removal of indwelling urinary balloon catheters from patients is usually associated with many problems. The problems such as balloon deflation failure; encrustations on balloons, eyes, and lumen; and catheter associated infections are widely discussed in the literature. The tensile set exhibited
