Abstract:This paper extends the work in Tee et al. (Intl J. Multiphase Flow, vol. 133, 2020, 103462) to investigate the effect of turbulent fluid motions on the translation and rotation of lifting and wall-interacting spheres in boundary layers. Each sphere was released from rest in smooth-wall boundary layers with
$Re_\tau =670$
and 1300 (
$d^+=56$
and 116, respectively) and allowed to propagate with the incoming fluid. Sphere and surrounding fluid motions were tr… Show more
