Study on Parameters of Slurry Pipeline Transportation Technology in Grade
In generally, there are multiple factories. According to mining areas, it supplies different quality iron ore concentrate. And according to the unique requirements of owners, different grades concentrate cannot be confused. Therefore, the grade of slurry pipeline transportation is needed to be used. When in the study of grade transmission, we must focus on Hydraulic characteristics of solid-liquid two-phase for different quality of iron ore concentrate. Slurry concentration and Critical velocity of flow is especially important. Research shows that the deposition rate of laminar or turbulent transition velocity is higher than the occasion when the slurry has concentration, so the minimum operating speed is controlled by sedimentation; the concentration lower limit is 62%. If the concentration is over 68%, the yield stress of slurry will increase, and the pipeline pressure will drop, which is very sensitive to slight changes in concentration. Therefore, the solid weight concentration range is 62% to 68%,as the selection range of design.
