Influence of inertial effects on the disintegration of the structure of disperse systems of the solid-phase-liquid-medium type

The conditions of disintegration of structured formations occurring in disperse systems of the solid-dispersed-phase-liquid-dispersion-medium type, increasing their effective viscosity and inhibiting the attainment of a high fluidity by the dispersions, have been investigated. The role of inertial effects in attainment of the isotropic dynamic state by S/L disperse systems, when external vibration action is applied to them, has been studied. It has been shown in what manner the presence of particles of different mass (and consequently inertia) in the system leads to a disintegration of the structure under the action of dispersion-medium oscillations.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
