ABSTRACT

Rheological characteristics of fly ash slurries were determined experimentally at higher concentrations. The pressure gradient was calculated using CFD modeling with input parameters obtained on the basis of rheological and other bench scale laboratory tests conducted on fly ash slurries. CFD modeling results are validated using experimental data collected in the present study on pilot plant test loop. Optimum design methodology for high concentration fly ash slurry disposal pipeline has been proposed on the basis of Specific Energy Consumption concept.

Key words: optimum design, HCSD pipeline, CFD, rheology, fly ash.
