Hello, I'm trying to estimate the time it takes to heat a solution in a closed tank vessel with direct steam injection. You can think of it as a tank with a mass of solution in it, and steam is injected with spargers. The overall energy balance is : dE/dt = mass in (hin + vin + pin) -...

The goal is indeed to get the solids suspended. But I have heard of slurries where the solids are completely stratified.

The "rocks" make up about 20% of the batch by weight, so wouldn't that be a slurry? The pump is a rotary gear pump.

I'm working with a slurry that has solids about 0.75 inches in diameter. The liquid isn't that viscous. This is a new slurry in a process where we handle other kinds of slurries no problem. We were draining the slurry from a batch tank to another tank as usual, and it was pumping fine, but when...
