摘要
This study presents a semi-empirical,comprehensive drag coefficient formulation for spherical particles moving in a gaseous medium.Leveraging a substantial body of experimental data,Direct Numerical Simulation(DNS),and Direct Simulation Monte Carlo(DSMC)results,the formulation incorporates compressibility,rarefaction,temperature ratio,shock wave physics,drag crisis and recovery effects.This comprehensive approach accurately models particle drag across a wide range of particle Mach and Reynolds numbers.Specifically,a genetic algorithm is employed to fit the formulation to the aforementioned data,resulting in a concrete expression.Compared to two latest universal drag models,the proposed formulation demonstrates a significantly lower relative error.Furthermore,three-dimensional numerical simulations using Ansys Fluent validate the accuracy of the developed model in applications,by contrasting its performance with the two state-of-the-art universal drag models.
