Sand Transport with Cohesive Admixtures…—Laboratory Tests and Modeling
The paper presents results of experimental and theoretical studies on transport of water-sand mixtures in steady flow with small amounts of cohesive fractions. The experiments were carried out for sand alone and with cohesive admixtures in the form of clay in the amount of 5, 10, 15 and 20% by weigh...

description | The paper presents results of experimental and theoretical studies on transport of water-sand mixtures in steady flow with small amounts of cohesive fractions. The experiments were carried out for sand alone and with cohesive admixtures in the form of clay in the amount of 5, 10, 15 and 20% by weight. The amount of sand fractions retained in the trap and along the control area was measured. The experimental results were compared with the calculation results for transport rate of sand fractions. An intended model of the vertical structure of both sand velocity and concentration as well as vertical mixing and sorting is proposed here in order to determine the influence of cohesive admixtures on the transport of sand fractions. Hence the reduction of sand fractions transport due to cohesion forces is included. The agreement of sand transport calculations according to the extended model with measured results and experimental data from literature was achieved within plus/minus a factor of 2. |
