https://doi.org/10.4467/2353737XCT.15.271.4674The paper presents the results of simulations of the flow of slurry ice through a control valve. The study focused on a HERZ Strömax-M DN20 control valve. The mass share of ice crystals in the studied slurry ice ranged from 5% to 20%. The results of experimental studies confirmed that the simulations were correct.

https://doi.org/10.4467/2353737XCT.18.016.7967This paper presents the results of experimental studies of the flow resistance of slurry ice flowing through ball valves. Loss coefficients in ball valves were determined from experimental investigations. The study focused on 1/2”, 3/4” and 1” ball valves at two valve positions (20˚ and 30˚). The ice mass fraction in the studied ice slurry ranged between 5% and 30%.

https://doi.org/10.4467/2353737XCT.15.272.4675The paper presents the results of experimental studies on ice slurry flow resistance in sudden pipe expansions. In the experimental studies, the mass fraction of solid particles in the slurry ranged from 5 to 30%. The pressure loss coefficients identified as a result of the experimental studies of the turbulent flow of the ice slurry are the same as the coefficients calculated for Newtonian liquids.
