On a stochastic model for particle sedimentation in fluids

Abstract

The engineering sciences have long been interested in models describing the settling (or sedimentation) of particle ensembles in viscous fluids. From a theoretical point of view, sedimentation constitutes a two phase many‐body phenomenon with complex interaction and as such has proved to be quite inaccessible to modelling attempts with relevance in applications. A stochastic model was introduced by Pickard and Tory in 1977 and was subsequently revised. In this paper we expand and refine the stochastic model and present a satisfactory model‐fitting procedure and parameter estimators based on transit times of sedimenting particles.
