Motion of a solid sphere in a horizontally oscillating liquid
Abstract
The behaviour of a single dense sphere in a horizontal tube containing an oscillating liquid has been studied experimentally and theoretically. The experiments were carried out using steel, glass and nylon spheres in water or dilute glucose solutions in a 5·08 cm diameter horizontal tube, at oscillation frequencies of 0·4 to 1·3 Hz. The measured amplitude of oscillation of the spheres agreed fairly well with predictions from the equation of …
