Advances in Solid-Liquid Flow in Pipes and its Application focuses on solid-liquid interactions. The selection first takes a look at hydraulic transport of bulky materials and role of lift in the radial migration of particles in a pipe flow. Topics include the technological and economical considerations of transporting materials; lift model and the equations of motion; coefficients of lift and drag; and calculated behavior of particles in a pipe flow. The book then discusses particle and fluid velocities of turbulent flows of suspensions of neutrally buoyant particles; phase-separation phenomena in iso-density, two-phase flows; and transient flow of solid-liquid mixtures in pipes. The text discusses pipeline transportation of coke in petroleum products, including slurry components, hydraulic tests, and hydraulic characteristics of slurry. The book then evaluates the use of heavy media in the pipeline transport of particulate solids. Comparison of pressure gradients and equipment and experimental procedures are highlighted. The selection is a valuable reference for readers interested in solid-liquid interactions.

Slurry Flow: Principles and Practice describes the basic concepts and methods for understanding and designing slurry flow systems, in-plan installations, and long-distance transportation systems. The goal of this book is to enable the design or plant engineer to derive the maximum benefit from a limited amount of test data and to generalize operating experience to new situations. Design procedures are described in detail and are accompanied by illustrative examples needed by engineers with little or no previous experience in slurry transport. The technical literature in this field is extensive: this book facilitates its use by surveying current research results and providing explanations of mechanistic flow models. This discussion of background scientific principles helps the practitioner to better interpret test data, select pumps, specify materials of construction, and choose measuring devises for slurry transport systems. The extensive range of topics covered in Slurry Flow: Principles and practice includes slurry rheology, homogeneous and heterogeneous slurry flow principles, wear mechanisms, pumping equipment, instrumentation, and operating aspects.
