Abstract
The normal restitution coefficient is an important parameter in particle deposition which is widely used in industrial fields. The normal restitution coefficient can be affected by many factors, and a typical factor is the surface roughness. Furthermore, a rough surface will influence the adhesion force and friction coefficient. The adhesion force and friction coefficient have effects on the normal restitution coefficient. However, the relationship between the normal restitution coefficient and the surface roughness has not been obtained. Therefore, an experimental study of microspheres impact on a rough surface is developed. The normal restitution coefficient decreases with the increasing surface roughness. The adhesion force is calculated by the Rabinovich model, and the results indicated that the adhesion force increases with the increasing surface roughness within the surface roughness range in this paper. Moreover, the adhesion energy and friction coefficient dissipation increase with the increasing surface roughness.
