Contents: The flow of lignite-water slurry through a 2-in. pipe was investigated over a wide range of flow rates and solid concentrations. The pressure drop data gathered were compared with various correlations. In general, the simpler correlations were found to be less accurate than the more elaborate models. The Gasseler model was found to fit our data best, with the optimum value of the parameter β* = 0.243. The widely used Durand correlation as well as the Newitt model also performed satisfactorily without parameter adjustments. The three venturimeters used in the flow loop proved the suitability of such an inexpensive instrument for metering slurry flow. The discharge coefficient for slurry was found to be very similar to that for single-phase flow, although a slight dependency of the discharge coefficient on the solid concentration was observed.
