Title: Roles of additives and surface control in slurry atomization

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7230630· OSTI ID:7230630

This quartery report describes a quantitative correlation between the flow behavior index of a micronized coal slurry and the interparticular van der Waals attraction force a measured by the Hamaker constant. Preliminary results on the effects of interparticular electrostatic repulsion and the liquid viscosity on both the flow behavior and the relative viscosity are also presented. 4 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
