    Minimum velocity to keep particles in suspension

    You are correct. This is intended for pulling samples for size/distribution measurements. I want to see a correct distribution of particle sizes.

    Minimum velocity to keep particles in suspension

    Thanks for your responses. Particle size is uncertain at this time. I am trying to make an excel spreadsheet to determine the velocity needed for any given size. The expected range is 100um to 1mm. The particulate is very dense (4000+ kg/m^3) and it is in diesel fuel. Again, this isn't really a...

    Minimum velocity to keep particles in suspension

    Hello, I am trying to design a dilution system that would have a 1-10% particulate in fluid. This is spinning in a loop (vertical and horizontal components) and I am trying to have it fairly homogenized so that I can pull a representative sample. I have used Stokes Law to find a terminal...
