Abstract

This 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%.
