Experimental Study on the Impact Factors of Sewage Sludge Wall Slip
The influence factors of sewage sludge wall slip were analyzed by using a rotational rheometer with parallel plate fixtures and with high speed camera. The technique involves checking the gap dependence of the stress/strain data and studying the time/stress data trend of strain stepped scanning. For sewage sludge of water content 80%, in the shearing flow it was found that, as the strain amplitude increasing, the stress data obtained at different gaps, then, at certain strain amplitude, started to diverge, indicating that wall slip occurred. But for sewage sludge of water content 87%, these curves are superimpose, indicating no slip occurred. While scanned sewage sludge water content 80% at different shear rates in 5s and 60s, it found that under 5s and 60s respectively, the shear rate is greater than 10s-1 and 0.5s-1 during time/stress curves appeared peak condition, shows slip occurred.
