where A is the rotational speed <strong>of</strong> the core and Cw is the<br />

coefficient <strong>of</strong> virtual or added mass. The force due to fluid<br />

drag (D), outside the core is<br />

where Vx and Vy are the particle velocity in the X and Y<br />

directions respectively and<br />

where g is the gravitational acceleration and p p and p L are the<br />

particle and liquid densities. The vorticity lift force is only<br />

used inside the core, and is found from<br />
