High-viscosity material transport problem?

How to calculate the pressure drop for high-viscosity fluids (around 200,000–300,000 CP), and which pump is suitable (rotary piston pump/rotor pump)? Will a screw pump work? What is a suitable value for the flow rate (especially at the pump inlet)? I’m not sure about that experienced person; everyone is welcome to discuss! !

Our company uses internal-ring high-viscosity gear pumps, but there is one issue: with highly viscous materials, if the temperature is not high enough, the pump remains in a semi-empty state and makes a very poor noise.

Gear pumps are used for transporting high-viscosity media. The flow rate can be referred to the common values for pipe flow rates in the Chemical Process Design Handbook
