High viscous fluid, how fast will a object sink?

[QUOTE="spitskool, post: 4350435, member: 472148"] 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) / (9*η) = (2*(2330-2300)*9.81*r^2) / (9*500). what is r now? but this formula is only for a sphere, stokes law gives F.drag = 6*pi*r*η*v. I think a rectangle prism got a higher drag resistance then a sphere. How can I rewrite his equation for a rectangle form with a small height? [ATTACH=full]160765[/ATTACH] If I am going in the wqrong direction please tell me, I really need help with this. Are there any other possibilities to tell how far it will sink in a given time?
