Abstract:A three-dimensional model, W type and long distance backfilling pipeline transportation model was developed by the computational fluid dynamics technology (CFD), which was used to study the pipeline transportation properties of three-phase flow foam slurry. Based on the laboratory slump and rheological properties test, the pressure and velocity of pipeline and elbow were studied by CFD under different ratios and backfilling ability. The results show that, the three-phase flow foam slurry can effectively reduce the pipeline transportation resistance and has better liquidity than ordinary slurry. Furthermore, at the elbow, the maximum pressure and velocity transfer to the lower side of the pipe from the pipe center, and the maximum velocity is 3.8 m/s, meeting the stability requirements. The best proportioning scheme is the bubble rate of 10%, the cement sand ratio of 1:6, the mass fraction of 72% and the backfilling ability of 60 m3/h. The resistance at pipeline and elbow are 2.33 and 3.22 kPa, respectively, and it can realize the self-flowing transportation. CFD technology is good at providing intuitive and accurate basis for pipeline transportation research, and would have a wider application space in the study of fluid rheological properties and resistance reduction methods.
