An Experimental Investigation of Settling Velocity of Spherical and Industrial Sand Particles in Newtonian and Non Newtonian Fluids using Particle Image Shadowgraph
DownloadFall 2014
The particle settling velocity is a fundamental requirement and key variable for modeling sedimentation processes and simulating particle transportations, especially when suspension is a main process. An experimental study has been conducted to measure the settling velocities of spherical...

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE SETTLING VELOCITY OF SPHERICAL PARTICLES IN VISCOELASTIC FLUIDS
DownloadFall 2017
Knowledge of settling behavior of particles in various types of fluids is indispensable to design and optimize numerous industrial operations such as cuttings transport in oil and gas well drilling, proppant transport in hydraulic fracturing operations, and so on. Most of the models developed so...
