>The suspensions were prepared from symmetrically shaped particles of micron-size metal oxides. The turbulent transport characteristics of these suspensions used in laminar-flow studies are shown to be unique functions of the intrinsic and extrinsic physical properties of the suspension independent of the composition of the solid phase. Turbulent friction losses of suspensions of titania, kaolin, and thorium oxide were analyzed. Heat transfer to flocculated suspensions was investigated and heat- and momentumtransfer analogies are discussed. Nucleate boiling heattransfer measurements were made with aqueous ThO/ sub 2/ suspensions containing fraction solids. Concentrated- and dilute- suspension transport is discussed in terms of the yield stress effects on minimum transport velocity. (R.E.U.)
