Abstract:
Walls can exert a retardation effect on particles settling in bounded fluid media. In this work, the parallel plate retardation effect was studied for particles falling in non-Newtonian fluids along the centreline of parallel plate ducts. The eccentric effect was also investigated for those particles which approached the wall. For spheres settling in sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) solutions, the variation in wall factors against the size ratio of the sphere’s diameter to the parallel plate wall spacing shows a non-linear trend; the particle settling velocity is independent at small size ratio, and then decreases quickly with increase in size ratio. A new correlation was presented covering a wider range of size ratios (0.02 〈 λ 〈 0.83) in the flow region of 0.0011 〈
