Ferguson & Church's calculation meanwhile allows for designers to include the relationship between settling velocity and particle diameter size. A relationship for settling velocity that incorporates larger particles, such as sands with Reynolds Number (RE) > 10, has been developed by Ferguson and Church (2004) as shown in equation 10.2. Equation 10.2 becomes Stokes' Law at small particle diameters and results in a constant drag coefficient for large particle diameters.
