Modelling of multiphase solid-liquid laminar flow with non-Newtonian carrier in pipelines using a layered model
Abstract
This paper discusses two-phase laminar flows of mixtures of solids in non-Newtonian carrier consisting of spherical particles in a 50-mm pipe at the Czech Technical University in Prague. Special attention is paid to the frictional head loss and thickness of transport layers. For the prediction of various transport characteristics, a layered model is used. Suitability of the layered model to predict the transport characteristics is investigated. Prediction results are compared to own experimental data.
