Oseen's Correction to Stokes Drag in the Short Communication of Newtonian and Micro-Polar Fluid: A Technical Note

Deepak Kumar Sri Vastava

A technical note on Oseen’s correction to Stokes drag on axially symmetric body is written. The previous published work of author has been utilized for the purpose. Brenner’s formula for Oseen’s correction to Stokes drag on axially symmetric particle placed in axial uniform flow of Newtonian fluid is advanced for transverse flow configuration. The relationship between Oseen’s drag in both flow configurations for axially symmetric particle is generated for Newtonian fluid and advanced for Micro-polar fluid later on. In the end, the results are validated and tested for spherical body.
