  • Summary

    This chapter considers the drag force for velocity gradients in the surrounding fluid, particle Mach number and Knudsen number, temperature gradients in the surrounding fluid, particle spin and fluid vorticity, flow turbulence and particle roughness, shape for a solid particle, surface contamination and internal recirculation for a spherical fluid particle, and deformation and drag for a fluid particle. This includes theory, experimental results, and numerical prediction of the drag coefficient for point-force models.
