Viscometry applied to the Bingham substance ice slurry.

Author(s) : FREI B., EGOLF P. W.

Summary

A modified theory of Bingham substances is applied to describe the behaviour of an ice slurry. This could be a substantial contribution to determine whether ice slurries show Newtonian behaviour at low ice fractions. A time behaviour of the cooling fluid is observed. The final results of a new online viscometry method are outlined and applied to experimental data. Measuring the mass flow, the density, and the pressure drop over a defined distance for two forcings of the system gives the input data for a mathematical transformation, which results in the rheogram. The method is applied to data which have been determined at other institutes and its predictions show very good agreement.
