Abstract

In all the publications (e.g., [1-3] containing an extensive bibliography) dealing with the flow of a liquid in the helical rotor duct, a Newtonian nature of the liquid is postulated. This assumption is correct in most cases concerning diluted suspensions. However, for some inhomogeneous liquid systems such a premise is not quite correct. Characteristic examples of non-Newtonian liquids processed in decanter centrifuges are suspensions of drilling solutions, active sludge, fresh and fermented sediments of sewage, and also fermented organic waste from poultry processing plants and livestock farms. Experimental investigations showed that the Shvedov-Bingham model [5] can be used for describing the flow of such liquid inhomogeneous systems.
