MOVEMENT OF A SINGLE PARTICLE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF GAS FLOW IN THE CHANNEL

Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of a single particle subjected to gas flow within a confined channel. Using both experimental observations and numerical simulations, we explore the interplay between particle characteristics, gas flow velocity, and channel dimensions. The particle's trajectory, velocity, and orientation are analyzed under varying flow conditions to identify key parameters influencing its movement. Results reveal that the particle's behavior is significantly affected by factors such as drag force, lift force, and particlewall interactions. The findings enhance our understanding of particulate matter transport in gaseous environments, which is crucial for applications in industrial processes, environmental engineering, and aerosol technology
