Raw data of Figures 4 to 12 in "Computational Fluid Dynamic modelling of fully-suspended slurry flows in horizontal pipes with different solids concentrations" Published in KONA Powder and Particle Journal
The Excel spreadsheet contains the two tables and the raw data used to plot Figs. 4-12. The calculations have been performed using the PHOENICS code and in-house MATLAB scripts. The meaning of the symbols in the Excel spreadsheet is as follows:
・ σ is one of the two main calibration coefficients of the two-fluid model
・ β is one of the two main calibration coefficients of the two-fluid model
・ im is the hydraulic gradient
・ <Φs>γ is the chord-average concentration
・ τlW and τsW are the wall shear stresses induced by liquid and solid phases, respectively
・ θ is the azimuthal angle direction
・ Uz is the locally-averaged liquid velocity
・ Vm is the mean flow velocity
・ y is the vertical elevation from the pipe bottom
・ D is the diameter of the pipe
Note that the experimental data by Kaushal and Tomita (2007) and Shaan et al (2000), shown in Figs. 7, 8, 11, 12, were obtained from the PDF version of the published articles. Conversely, the experimental data by Matoušek (2002) were available in tabular format.
