Predicting the Settling Velocity of Lime Softening Flocs using Fractal Geometry
Stokes’ law that is traditionally used for modeling the sedimentation of flocs, incorrectly assumes that the floc is solid and spherical. Consequently the settling rates of flocs cannot be estimated using the Stokes law. The application of fractal dimensions to study the internal structure and set...
