The range of v_b expressed in a dimensionless way, υ^*_b = υ_b / √gd_p (where √gd_p is the velocity that a particle reaches when falls a distance equal to its own radius by action of gravity) covers between 0.005 and 0.8. [Google Scholar]

It is possible to build a dimensionless variable b^* = b * √gd_p The result would be b^* = 0.25, a value which is lesser than the one obtained for a. [Google Scholar]
