DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5700044· OSTI ID:5700044
The objective of this program is to develop a basic understanding of the fundamental rheological properties of high solids concentration (50% to 100%) slurries and wet cake. During this quarter the goals of Task 3 were advanced. The dynamic shear cell was completed and shakedown experiments begun. In order to have a basis for comparison with published technology experiments were performed with the Jenike shear cell and glass beads. Experiments were also performed with dry glass beads in the dynamic shear test cell. 5 refs., 7 figs., 12 tabs.
