Trajectories of coarse granular sediment particles in a simplified centrifugal dredge pump model

Due to different inertia, sediment particles stop following the trails of water elements during the flow passage of a centrifugal pump. In a dredge pump, deviation characteristics of sediment particles from surrounding fluid are still not crystal clear. Apparently, the deviation makes sediment parti...
