Summary

Description
English: Drag coefficient for a smooth sphere as a function of Reynolds number, as obtained from laboratory experiments. The blue line is the parameterization of Clift, Grace & Weber (1978). The green line is the drag coefficient according to Stokes' law, valid for very low Reynolds numbers.
