In this study, particle sedimentation is considered as the view of theoretical background for PAC injection cases in water transmission lines. The problem of predicting critical flow velocity in solid liquid carrying pipelines with a sufficient accuracy is of great interest to many hydraulic engineers. The interest is the minimum cost of slurry(solid-liquid mixture) transportation at critical velocity. For the velocities below the critical velocity, there may be deposition of solid particles in the pipeline, causing excessive pipe abrasion, head loss, and plunging. To define the critical flow velocity in a solid-liquid carrying pipe, a stationary layer of noncohesive coarse solid particles is considered initially. When the flow velocity increases gradually, because of shear exerted on the particles, some particles at the uppermost layer tend to move along the flow direction by jumping, rolling, or sliding. A further increase in flow velocity results in the initiation of motion of particles at the lower layers and eventually, at a critical condition, all the particles at the pipe wall move without any deposition. In this condition, solid particles pass from a saltation regime to a heterogeneous regime. Within the transition zone between heterogeneous and saltation regimes, there is a unique velocity, corresponding to minimum head loss in the pipeline, below which deposits will occur but above which no deposit in the pipeline will be encountered. In the present study, this velocity is defined as the critical flow velocity Vc. Minimum transport velocity of PAC slurries were calculated for the real operation field. |
