GE coal-water slurry gasification
Thread Content
Does the temperature display in the slurry tank indicate the viscosity of the water-coal slurry in the tank?
How could that be? Why do you think so?
The viscosity of water-coal slurry is related to temperature. What do you think is the purpose of measuring the temperature at the bottom of the coal slurry tank?

It is mainly related to viscosity; in cold regions in the north, it is necessary to take into account the fact that in low-temperature environments the temperature of the water-coal slurry drops, causing its viscosity to increase. When I conducted experiments with coal slurry in Hulunbuir, fresh water was used for preparing the slurry, and the temperature of that water was only 4°C. As a result, the viscosity of the coal slurry was quite high.
Viscosity is related to temperature; as the temperature rises, the viscosity certainly decreases. However, you shouldn’t ask questions like \"The temperature reading in the slurry tank indicates the viscosity of the water-coal slurry,\" as this will prevent others from understanding what you mean.
You’re too kind; we learn from each other to improve.
