Abstract

Details are given of an experimental investigation of the interaction between two equal spheres settling through a viscous liquid in the presence of each other at various distances between sphere centres and with the line of centres at various angles to the horizontal. The results are represented by simple empirical equations. These results are discussed in relation to the theoretical predictions of other workers.
