Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

The article is concerned with the study of the effect of E. S. Asmolov's corrections to Saffman's lift force for the wall vicinity and a nonzero ratio of Reynolds numbers. It is shown in what way these corrections change the particle paths in a Couette layer and the conditions of deposition.
