Drag force is one of the most important factors that determine dynamics of solid bodies moving in viscous fluids. The knowledge of this force is essential for a number of applications in engineering, in particular, for the evaluation the engine power to ensure a desirable velocity of the airplanes, ships, etc., as well as for analyzing the behavior of solid particles, droplets and bubbles in two-phase flows. Numerous experimental and theoretical investigations dealing with drag of bodies of different shapes moving with low and high velocities in viscous fluid were performed during the last three centuries. |
