Settling Slurry Vertical Pipe Friction Loss Correlation
Correlations for modeling the physical interaction of solids-liquid-pipe wall within a vertical pipe which accounts for the following phenomena:
- Local increase in solids concentration because of liquid and solid velocity slip
- Movement of solids toward or away from the pipe wall
From the slurry tab of FluidFlow calculation options, any of these three correlations can be used:
- Vertical Pipe WASC Loss
- 4CM
- Spelay, Gillies, Hashemi and Sanders 2017 Collisional Stress Model
