Abstract: A kinetic energy turbulence model is proposed for the flow simulation and scale-up of slurry pipelines (in Part 1). The numerical integration is performed by using a modified finite volume ...

Abstract: A kinetic energy turbulence model has been proposed for the computer flow simulation and scale-up of slurry pipelines (in Part 1 [1]). The numerical integration is performed by using a modified ...

Abstract: Back-scattering LDV has been used to investigate particulate two-phase flow in a centrifugal slurry pump. The measurements reported here have been made with a dilute suspension of 0.8 mm glass ...

Abstract: A two-component LDV system was used to investigate single and two-phase flow in a representative section at the impeller outlet of a centrifugal slurry pump. Measurements were performed at Qn ...

Abstract: The spatial nonuniformities and the interactions between the components determine the flow behavior of multicomponent systems. A space/time averaging approach of the governing equations modeling ...

Abstract: This paper presents a multiphase turbulence closure employing one transport equation, namely, the turbulence kinetic energy equation. The proposed form of this equation is different from the ...

Abstract: Using probes responding to changes of slurry electrical resistance with concentration, time spectra of longitudinal concentration fluctuations in turbulent slurry flows have been measured. The ...

Abstract: The headlosses in slurry pump casings are caused by the energy dissipation in the flowing liquid-solid mixture, and the particle-casing wall interaction. This paper presents a quasi-three-dimensional ...
