Abstract

Goldstein's expansion of the Oseen drag of a sphere in powers of Reynolds number is extended to 24 terms by computer. The convergence is found to be limited by a simple pole at R = − 4·18172. The series is recast using an Euler transformation and other devices to yield accurate results for large R.
