Abstract:
Based on the Diagram of Resistance Coefficient C
D versus Re , a resistance term and differential equation were formulated. Its analytical solution proved consistent with the experiment results with the error ranging from 2 %~20 %, while the solution of original differential equation has the error ranging from 136 %~249 %. That experiment was conducted with π-Testing Design. The settling equation of a sphere in fluid proved its generality in the sphere subject to resistance figuring in different ranges.
