Migration in slow slurry flow including the effect due to Brownian Motion
When a dense particle-fluid mixture is made to flow in a conduit, experiments show that the particles tend to move to the centre where the shear rate is smallest. The effect vanishes when the particles are sufficiently small for thermal agitation by Brownian motion to dominate. While various theorie...
