Abstract

Analytical relationships between velocity profiles and flow resistance data are developed for suspensions of papermaking fibers in turbulent shear. The relationships apply to suspensions of synthetic fibers. The wall layer appears to be unaffected by the presence of fibers, and the cause of drag reduction can be attributed to the turbulent core region.
