Abstract
In this study a novel laboratory-scale pipe rheometer is
utilized in Theological characterization of concentrated
MFC and cellulose suspensions. The method is based on a
combination of pulsed ultrasound velocity profiling (UVP)
and pressure difference measurement (PD). The Theological
properties of the suspensions are described in terms of
pressure loss, viscosity and yield stress. The results
are compared to rotational rheometer results. It is
demonstrated that a well controlled pipe flow environment
together with the UVP-PD technique is efficient in
characterizing the rheological flow behavior of complex
slurries
