This book is a collection of 28 contributions on basic phenomena and advanced methods of investigation for particulate two-phase flow. Written by leading scientists in the field, this book covers new measurement methods, experimental results on particulate two-phase flow microstructure at low and large Reynolds numbers, micromechanical, probabilistic, and numerical simulations, as well as production of ultrafine particles via aerosols and colloids for materials with controlled microstructure. Each chapter is focused on the qualitative progress made in the field in the last several years and has an extensive review section and original results. This unique volume assembles information previously found only in journals and specialized publications. It is an invaluable reference for researchers and engineers from academia and industry.

Slurry Flow: Principles and Practice describes the basic concepts and methods for understanding and designing slurry flow systems, in-plan installations, and long-distance transportation systems. The goal of this book is to enable the design or plant engineer to derive the maximum benefit from a limited amount of test data and to generalize operating experience to new situations. Design procedures are described in detail and are accompanied by illustrative examples needed by engineers with little or no previous experience in slurry transport. The technical literature in this field is extensive: this book facilitates its use by surveying current research results and providing explanations of mechanistic flow models. This discussion of background scientific principles helps the practitioner to better interpret test data, select pumps, specify materials of construction, and choose measuring devises for slurry transport systems. The extensive range of topics covered in Slurry Flow: Principles and practice includes slurry rheology, homogeneous and heterogeneous slurry flow principles, wear mechanisms, pumping equipment, instrumentation, and operating aspects.
