# QA Slurry and Non-Newtonian

There are many example calculations which are used to verify the adherence of the software to the various published calculation methods. The examples can be found in the folder "[FluidFlow3 folder]\QA Non Newtonian Flow". Many refer to the example calculations provided in textbooks. We will consider the textbook example from Wilson, Addie, Selgren and Clift 3rd Ed Case Study 6.1. This file can be found at: "[FluidFlow3 folder]\QA Non Newtonian Flow\Settling\WASC Ed 3 Case Study 6.1.ff3". Points to note in setting up the model: 1.As per example flow basis is the solids flow. 2.Particle shape factor is included. Points to note in the results: 1.Flow refers to total flow of the slurry mixture. 2.Velocity is the average mixture velocity based at pipe inlet conditions. 3.Specific Energy is calculated in W s/kg-m. 4.Friction Factor is the Darcy friction factor which is 4 times the Fanning friction factor. 5.Cvd Deposition Velocity refers to the deposition velocity at the actual flowing concentration.
