Experimental Study of the Vertical Hydraulic Drag Force on Regular Tetrahedron

Abstract:

It is well known that the hydraulic drag force on objects cant be ignored in computing the movement of objects in water. And the drag forces on sphere and cuboids have long been studied. While in hydraulic engineering, objects with regular tetrahedron shape are widely used to form the foundation and temporary dam for they can interlock each other to obtain a compacted integral. In this article the vertical hydraulic drag force on regular tetrahedron is studied by indoor experiments, the relation of the vertical hydraulic drag coefficient and the vertical velocity is proposed. And the max vertical speeds of different materials are deduced. The result is helpful to compute the movement of regular tetrahedron in water and estimate the impact effect on the groundwork.
