Can I assume that because of the wetting between the object and molten fluid (glass) that the surface tension can be neglected?
Are the only forces I can work with now is the Buoyancy force and the viscous drag force?
So at the given temperature for example:
Stokes Law:
v = (2*∇ρ*g*r^2)...
Thank you for the replies,
the accuracy does not need to me high, but a nice esstimate will be good. A simplified model will do.
Density.object = 2330 kg/m^3
Area.object = 1.7*0.8 = 1.36 mm^2
Volume.object = 1.7*0.8*0.1 = 0.136 mm^3
Massa object = 0.31688 mg
Density.fluid = 2300 kg/m^3, at 500...
Homework Statement
I am currently looking for a (simplified) model to see how far/fast a object will sink in a high viscous fluid.
I found a lot of information about sinking spheres and the maximum contact angle with the fuild because of the surface tension before it sinks. And a example...
