Modeling of viscosity for power plant ash slurry at higher concentrations: Effect of solids volume fraction, particle size and hydrodynamic interactions
چکیده انگلیسی

The rheological behaviour of five fly ash samples (having different d50) collected from a thermal power plant has been investigated over a range of volumetric solids concentration (ϕ = 0.32–0.4945) in shear rate range of 10–200 s− 1. The slurry was highly pseudo-plastic whose behavior can be described by a non-Newtonian power law model in the range of solids concentration studied. The maximum solids fraction (ϕm) at which the slurry viscosity approaches infinity, was determined for the fly ash samples using the relationship between inverse of relative viscosity (i.e.1μr) and volume fraction of solids ϕ. A model incorporating maximum solids fraction (ϕm), power law index (n), median particle size (d50), co-efficient of uniformity (CU), shear rate (γ̇) has been developed to predict the viscosity. The model predictions and the experimental data matched quite well for all five samples and it is expected to be quite helpful in evaluating the hydraulic parameters for design of commercial high concentration fly ash slurry pipelines. The most important variables such as volume fraction of solids, particle size, and size distribution, and their effect on the hydrodynamic forces in a non-Newtonian laminar flow regime are discussed.

The rheological behaviour of five fly ash samples collected from an Indian thermal power plant was investigated. A model was proposed to predict the viscosity of the slurry at higher solids concentrations which may be quite useful in evaluating hydraulic parameters for designing of commercial slurry pipelines. The variables influencing the hydrodynamic forces in a non-Newtonian laminar flow regime has been discussed.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
