Abstract: A methodology is proposed for determining the optimum particle size distribution of a highly concentrated suspension that will yield the lowest combined energy consumption for comminution and pumping of a specified annual throughput in pipe of specified size and length. Some of the results obtained from the calculations made for a highly concentrated coal slurry arc presented to demonstrate the significance of the particle size distribution in the rhcologic analyses and the viability of the concept of optimization.
