摘　　要：A particle movement model for a horizontal laminar flow field was established in this study,using a modified Basset-Boussinesq-Oseen equation for multiphase fluid dynamics,The motion of ellipsoidal and spherical particles in this flow field was compared to determine the differences in entrainment of ellipsoidal versus spherical particles.Our theoretical results indicate that ellipsoidal particles move more rapidly and smoothly within the fluid than spherical particles under the same conditions.Moreover,this feature is enhanced,as the ellipsoidal degree of the particle increases.Based on a dimensional analysis,flow experiments were carried out to verify the behavior of ellipsoidal versus spherical particles in practice.Both our theoretical and experimental results show that ellipsoidal particles approach the fluid velocity more quickly than spherical particles.Future work would need to address effects of velocity gradients and rotation on particle behavior.
