Abstract

On the basis of an analysis of the pseudoturbulent motion of both the suspended particles and the carrier fluid, the normal stress components in the dispersed phase are obtained for the problem of inclined confined flows of finely dispersed suspensions and colloids. These hydrodynamic pulsations are due to the shear and the work done by the average relative flow of the fluid phase on random concentration fluctuations of the disperse system because of the substantial slip of the phases of the suspension under gravity. The momentum conservation equations for the particles are obtained with allowance for the angle of inclination of the flow to the vertical and on the basis of these equations the suspension capacity of the flow as a function of the angle of inclination, particle size, Galileo number and other parameters is illustrated.
