Title: Roles of additives and surface control in slurry atomization

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6702272· OSTI ID:6702272

This quarterly report describes a quantitative correlation between the flow behavior index of a micronized coal slurry and the interparticular van der Waals attraction force as 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.
