Study on velocity distribution of large particle in vertical slurry pipeline

Velocity distribution of vertical pipes with large particle slurry plays an important role in pipeline transportation of minerals in hydraulic coal mining and ocean mining industry. The experiments of particle fluidization and particle vertical lift are conducted and the fluidization data of three kinds of large particles are analyzed. The results show that the vortex resistance prevents particles from moving as the coarse particles move in vertical pipes. An additional coefficient method is proposed to study the vortex resistance by increasing the coefficient of vortex resistance before interference. Mathematical model is established to describe the drag coefficient of the vortex by analyzing the influence factors of the experimental data and the drag coefficient of the vortex. In addition, calculation model of the velocity distribution of large particles in vertical pipe is proposed by analyzing the force, the fluid, and the solid momentum. Moreover, the experimental data of particle transport in vertical pipes are utilized to verify and analyze the proposed model.
