OSTI ID:4146364
Data are presented for the horizontal settling velocities of small particle suspensions. The effect of concentration, pipe diameter and effective density ratio were determined. In almost all cases a moving bed was formed before a stationary bed. For small concentrations, up to several per cent by volume, the effect of concentration was negligible. An empirical equation was derived which is applicable to both moving and stationary bed conditions. This equation was found applicable for effective density ratios of 1.7 to 18.3 and pipe diameters of 0.75 to 2 in. The Reynolds number of a suspension was not a true indication of the degree of turbulence or particle suspension. (For preceding part see AAEC/E-37) (auth)
