 Ratio of the density of the fluid and the density of the particles. \\
-With the default value the particles are weightless and transported passively with the resolved scale flow. In case of '''density_ratio''' ''/= 0.0'' particles have a mass and hence inertia so that their velocity deviates more or less from the velocity of the surrounding flow. Particle velocity is calculated analytically and depends on (besides the density ratio and the current velocity difference between particles and surrounding fluid) the particle radius which is determined via [#radius radius] as well as on the molecular viscosity (assumed as 1.461E-5 m^{{{2}}} /s).

 If '''density_ratio''' ''= 1.0'', the particle density corresponds to the density of the surrounding fluid and the particles do not feel any buoyancy. Otherwise, particles will be accelerated upwards ('''density_ratio''' > ''1.0'') or downwards ('''density_ratio''' < ''1.0'').
