The phrase 'particle sedimentation' is correct and usable in written English.
It is usually used to refer to the process of allowing particles in a suspension or other fluid to settle out of the fluid due to gravity. For example: "The particle sedimentation process allowed us to separate the particles from the fluid."
Three different distributions were found depending on particle sedimentation, diffusion, or evaporation being dominant: (i) particles form a sediment, (ii) equal distribution throughout the film, (iii) particle accumulation at the surface.
However, the solid particle sedimentation was only partly achieved.
Hinderliter, P. M. et al. ISDD: A computational model of particle sedimentation, diffusion and target cell dosimetry for in vitro toxicity studies.
TZ-3Y20A/Mo multilayer composites were prepared via a novel particle sedimentation method.
The process of particle sedimentation in a three-dimensional longitudinal basin in a water treatment plant is studied computationally.
Following the glycerol addition, the spider sparger was less effective based on the particle sedimentation at lower liquid/solid ratios when compared to the other sparger designs.
Different to the conventional thoughts that the modification of boiling heat transfer is the result of solid surface modification by particle sedimentations forming a porous or coating layer, the result suggests that both the particle deposition effect, and the collective effect of particles suspending in liquid could affect the boiling heat transfer significantly.
This represents a middle state between the lean scatter state, which is considered to be similar to single-particle sedimentation, and the agglomerate state.
Trajectories and settling speeds for two-particle sedimentation, and settling speed for multiparticle sedimentation from initial distributions on a cubic lattice or at random give good quantitative agreement with existing theories.
We examine the efficacy of the proposed approach through extensive numerical experiments involving one or more fluids and solids, that include two-particle sedimentation in homogeneous and stratified environment.
Finally, to demonstrate the method of predicting the motion of individual particles, sedimentation and consecutive collision of a single sphere with a solid wall is simulated.
