Drag on ensembles of fluid spheres translating in a power-law liquid at moderate Reynolds numbers

This work elucidates the role of power-law rheology on the sedimentation velocity of an ensemble of mono-size spherical Newtonian droplets (free from surfactants) translating in a power-law continuous phase numerically by solving the momentum equations of both phases. A simple sphere-in-sphere cell...
