โœฆ Synopsis


This work investigated the extent of the wall effects on the free falling velocity of fluid spheres in quiescent Newtonian and pseudoplastic non-Newtonian media. The terminal velocity has been measured as a function of the physical properties of the both dispersed and continuous phases, and of falling tube diameter. It is shown that in the creeDing flow region (Re << 1) and for the conditions when the viscosity of the dispersed phase is much smaller khan khat of khe continuous phase, the extent of wall effect is determined only by the ratio of the sizes of the settling fluid sphere and of the vessel. The same analytical relation correlates well the data for both Newtonian and non Newtonian continuous media in the range dlD < 0.45.

On a etudie dans ce travail I'importance des effets de paroi sur la vitesse en chute libre de spheres flujes dans des milieux newtoniens et des milieux non newtoniens pseudoplastiques au repos. La vitesse terminale a etr: mesuree en fonction des proprietes physiques des phases dispersee et continue ainsi que du diametre du tube to bant. On montre que dans la region d'ecoulement rampant (Re << 1) et pour les conditions ou la viscosite de la phase dispersee est beaucoup plus petite que celle de la phase continue, I'importance de I'effet de paroi est determinee uniquemementparrapport entre la taille des spheres fluides en formation et celle du reservoir. La mime relation correle bien les donnees des milieux continue newtoniens et non newtoniens lorsque dlD < 0,45.
