Design calculations were made for a system consisting of a pump, one hundred feet of pipe, and a heat exchanger to remove 1 Mw of heat from various aqueous thorium oxide slurries. The rheological properties of the slurries were varied over a range of yield stresses from 0 to 1.5 lb/sq ft and of coefficients of rigidity from 1/2 to 2 centipoise. Two different cases were studied: a heat exchanger having fixed axial and radial delta T in which the tube length was allowed to vary and a heat exchanger having fixed tube length in which the axial and radial delta T were allowed to vary. It was shown that the pump power must be increased by a factor of 15 to 30 in order to maintain satisfactory operation of the heat exchanger as the slurry yield stress is increased form 0 to 1.5 lb/sq ft. However the pump power is essentially independent of heat exchanger tube diameter for any given slurry. The rated capacity of a slurry heat exchange is essentially independent of slurry yield stress and coefficient of rigidity, provided that the tube velocity can be suitably increased as the slurry yield stress in increased.
