We propose a fitting formula for the inertial lift on a sphere drawn from direct numerical simulation data obtained in straight microchannels. The formula consists of four terms that represent the shear-gradient-induced lift, the wall-induced lift, the slip-shear lift, and the correction of the shear-gradient-induced lift, respectively.
