Solvent type, temperature, coal to solvent ratio, particle granularity, shear rate and shear time were investigated. The viscosity of the solvents is time independent. However, the slurries are thixotropic. A change from pseudo-plastic to Newtonian behavior occurs as the temperature, or as the solvent to coal ratio, increases. The solvent used in the slurry affects the point at which the rheology changes from pseudo-plastic to Newtonian. The REC slurry changes at 1:1.2 coal to solvent ratio and at 40 °C. The HAR slurry changes at a 1:1.5 ratio and at 60 °C. The rheology of the slurries is pseudo-plastic at low shear rates but Newtonian at high shear rates.展开更多
