Particle sizing in concentrated suspensions by use of steady-state, continuous-wave photon-migration techniques.
We demonstrate a new approach for determining particle-size distribution in concentrated suspensions from spectral measurement of isotropic scattering coefficients by use of steady-state, continuous-wave photon-migration techniques. Successful recovery of particle-size distribution for TiO(2) suspensions in the form of log-normal functions is achieved through a regularized inverse algorithm, in...
متن کاملRheology and Structure of Concentrated Suspensions of Hard Spheres. Shear Induced Particle Migration
The apparent shear viscosity, in the non-Browman Ilmit, for a homogeneous suspension of monodispersed hard spheres in systems ranging from dilute to concentrated was previously established. From an estimation of the viscous dissipation. We use the inter-particle distance dependence of the shear viscosity for determining the components of a local stress tensor associated with the transient netwo...
متن کاملParticle-pressure-induced self-filtration in concentrated suspensions.
Gravity-driven flow of concentrated suspensions (solid volume fraction ϕ>0.50) of non-brownian spherical particles through a channel contraction at low Reynolds number is studied experimentally. The abrupt change in the flow area at the contraction forms distinct shear-rate regions having different fluid pressures, which are related to the concept of particle pressure. A model involving particl...
متن کاملEnhanced mixing and spatial instability in concentrated bacterial suspensions.
High-resolution optical coherence tomography is used to study the onset of a large-scale convective motion in free-standing thin films of adjustable thickness containing suspensions of swimming aerobic bacteria. Clear evidence is found that beyond a threshold film thickness there exists a transition from quasi-two-dimensional collective swimming to three-dimensional turbulent behavior. The latt...
متن کاملGas migration regimes and outgassing in particle-rich suspensions
Understanding how gasses escape from particle-rich suspensions has important applications in nature and industry. Motivated by applications such as outgassing of crystal-rich magmas, we map gas migration patterns in experiments where we vary (1) particle fractions and liquid viscosity (10–500 Pa s), (2) container shape (horizontal parallel plates and upright cylinders), and (3) methods of bubbl...
