Momentum transfer of ice slurry flows in tubes: modelling.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The authors analyze the possibility of the simulations of ice slurry flow based on the known CFD procedures, for both Bingham fluids and multiphase flow models (the mixture and Eulerian models). It was shown that in the laminar region, the models selected (the Bingham and mixture model) gave a correct description of momentum transfer. In the turbulent range, corresponding to low values of the Reynolds number, the best agreement between experimental and simulation results (for the single-phase as well as for the multiphase Eulerian model) was obtained when the RNG k-e turbulence model with the enhanced wall treatment algorithm was selected.
