On the Importance of the Basset History Term on the Particle Motion Induced by a Plane Shock Wave

  • Conference paper
Shock Waves @ Marseille III

Abstract

The influence of the various forces in the particle momentum equation (i.e. drag force, added mass, Basset history force, and the force due to an external pressure gradient) on the shock wave propagation through a gas-particle mixture were evaluated by one-dimensional numerical analysis. The temporal evolution of the different forces at various locations in the low pressure section of the shock tube were evaluated for different particle response times and initial shock strengths. Furthermore, an effective drag coefficient which includes the influence of all forces affecting the particle motion was determined and compared to the standard drag curve and existing experimental data.
