Pattern formation in a rotating suspension of non-Brownian settling particles.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report band formation and other pattern formation for a settling suspension of uniform non-Brownian particles in a completely filled horizontal rotating cylinder. The system shows a series of sharp pattern changes that are mapped out as a function of the rotation period and suspension viscosity. The experiment suggests that a large number of patterns and rich dynamics result from the interplay among the viscous drag, and gravitational and centrifugal forces.

Selective Flocculation for Coal De Mineralization
Selective flocculation has long been suggested as a method for the treatment of ultra-fine particles typical of which are those produced in a de-sliming process ahead of flotation. In this paper the results of the coal de-mineralization, using synthetic polyacrylamide polymers, are presented. A prescreening test on the suitability of the polymers using Run-Of-Mine (R.O.M.) coal and artificial m...

We explore the phenomenon of segregation and pattern formation in the complex system of a rotating horizontal cylinder completely filled with a dilute suspension of non-Brownian particles. A general dimensionless analysis is presented, which reveals the importance of the different dimensionless parameters involved. A detailed account of the mechanism of segregation and formation of axial bands ...
متن کاملAxial segregation of a settling suspension in a rotating cylinder.
A rotating suspension of nonbuoyant particles can develop striking inhomogeneities in particle concentration, with regular bands of high and low concentration along the symmetry axis. We report Stokes-flow simulations showing that the formation of axial bands is correlated with an inhomogeneous particle distribution in the radial plane. An order parameter, based on the average angular velocity ...
متن کاملFluid Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids over a Flat Plate with Conjugate Heat Transfer
The falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. This phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. In this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...
