  2. DM3 density meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dm3_density_meter

    The DM3 density meter (also known as the DM3 or SCIAM DM3 density meter) is a newly developed system for density measurement.A part of a continuous, in-line measurement device that is used in major slurry industries and applications to accurately and safely calculate density.

  3. Slurry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry

    A slurry composed of glass beads in silicone oil flowing down an inclined plane Potato starch slurry. A slurry is a mixture of denser solids suspended in liquid, usually water. The most common use of slurry is as a means of transporting solids or separating minerals, the liquid being a carrier that is pumped on a device such as a centrifugal pump.

  4. Density meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_meter

    A density meter (densimeter) is a device which measures the density of an object or material. Density is usually abbreviated as either ρ {\displaystyle \rho } or D {\displaystyle D} . Typically, density either has the units of k g / m 3 {\displaystyle kg/m^{3}} or l b / f t 3 {\displaystyle lb/ft^{3}} .

  5. Nuclear densitometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_densitometry

    A density gauge being used to ensure proper compaction for the foundation of a school construction project.. Nuclear densitometry is a technique used in civil construction and the petroleum industry, as well as for mining and archaeology purposes, to measure the density and inner structure of the test material.

  6. Well cementing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_cementing

    Bentonite in concentrations of 2–4% is also added to prevent segregation of particles and slurry. Gilsonite – Used to obtain slurry weights as low as 12.0ppg. In high concentrations, mixing is a problem. Powdered coal – Can be used to obtain a slurry with a density as low as 11.9ppg, 12.5–25 lbs per sack are usually added.

  7. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    The simplest model of the dense fluid viscosity is a (truncated) power series of reduced mole density or pressure. Jossi et al. (1962) [14] presented such a model based on reduced mole density, but its most widespread form is the version proposed by Lohrenz et al. (1964) [15] which is displayed below.

  8. Mud weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_weight

    In the oil industry, mud weight is the density of the drilling fluid and is normally measured in pounds per gallon (lb/gal) (ppg) or pound cubic feet (pcf) . [1] In the field it is measured using a mud scale or mud balance. Mud can weigh up to 22 or 23 ppg. A gallon of water typically weighs 8.33 pounds (or 7.48 ppg).

  9. Marsh funnel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsh_funnel

    ρ = density in g/cm 3 t = quart funnel time in seconds For example, a mud of funnel time 40 seconds and density 1.1 g/cm 3 has an effective viscosity of about 16.5 cP. For the range of times of typical muds above, the shear rate in the Marsh funnel is about 2000 s −1. [4]
