“…A modified Marsh cone with a height of 310 mm, larger diameter of 155 mm, smaller diameter of 8 mm, and nozzle length of 60 mm was used to measure the flow time of the first 500 mL of 1000 mL specimens of pastes [30]. Initial and final settings were measured using a vicat apparatus according to ASTM C191 [31].…”

“…The Marsh funnel fluid flow ranges from laminar (along the cone) to transitional (vicinity of the orifice) to turbulent (along the orifice), depending on the fluid level and rheology; thus it is difficult to assign a turbulence model that can cover all flow regimes. In the present study, the Marsh funnel flow was considered as laminar shear, since most satisfactory flows fall within this regime (Nguyen et al, 2006).…”

“…Thus, accurate measurement of the grout rheological properties is of great importance. Therefore, several instruments and methods have been developed to measure grout properties, among which the Marsh funnel is the most common, applicable in both the lab and field in the construction and oil industries (Balhoff et al, 2011;Benaicha, Jalbaud, Hafidi Alaoui, and Burtschell, 2015;Guria, Kumar, and Mishra, 2013;Le Roy, 2004;Mohammed, Pusch, Knutsson, and Hellström, 2014;Nguyen, Rémond, Gallias, Bigas, and Muller, 2006;Pitt, 2000;Roussel and Le Roy, 2005;Schwarz, 1997). The Marsh funnel, developed in the late 1920s, is an orifice meter, that is, a simple draining cone under gravitational force without replenishment for measuring the viscosity of drilling mud, grout, and any sort of slurry or cement paste (Marsh, 1931).…”

“…Fluid flow through the Marsh funnel has been adequately studied, but seldom with numerical simulation (Nguyen et al, 2006) or analytical calculation (Hakansson, 1993;Le Roy, 2004;Roussel and Le Roy, 2005). To the authors' best knowledge, limited investigations have been made to propose an easy, fast, and reliable fluid viscosity analysis in terms of Marsh funnel discharge flow time.…”

This paper presents the application of computational fluid dynamics technique in civil and underground industries to evaluate fluid behaviour in a Marsh funnel. The numerical approach, based on computational fluid dynamics, simulated an incompressible two-phase Newtonian flow by means of the Volume-of-Fluid method. A complementary analytical proposed which provided a quick, field-ready method to assess the fluid field in the Marsh funnel. A supplemental experimental effort evaluated the results obtained from both the analytical calculation and numerical simulation. Results showed that the application of computational fluid dynamics technique gives the desired results in studying fluid flows in civil and underground industries. Proposed analytical solution is also capable of accurately predicting the fluid flow and thus can complement the experimental and numerical approaches. Further, the proposed analytical approach can be an alternative method for faster evaluation of fluid, although it needs to be calibrated with either the numerical or the experimental studies.

“…There are two rheological models describing the variation of the shear stress with the shear rate, namely, the Bingham model and the Herschel-Bulkley model (Nguyen et al, 2006), as illustrated by the shear stress-shear rate curves plotted in Figure 1. In the Bingham model, the shear stress-shear rate relation is assumed to be linear as given by…”

Effects of superplasticiser on rheology and cohesiveness of CSF cement paste

Superplasticiser (SP) is now an indispensable ingredient for the production of concrete. However, its proper use is a great concern because its over-dosage could lead to drastic reduction in the cohesiveness of concrete. Furthermore, experience has indicated that the SP demand, saturation dosage and dosage causing segregation are highly dependent on the powder content and therefore the effects of SP are not simple functions of dosage. This study aims to evaluate the effects of SP dosage on the fresh properties of cement paste containing condensed silica fume (CSF). A number of cement paste samples with different SP dosages and CSF contents were tested. The resultsshowed that the addition of SP would improve the packing density, flowability and rheology but impair the cohesiveness of cement paste. It would also render the cement paste shear thickening. To cater for the effects of powder fineness, it is proposed that the SP dosage should be measured in terms of the quantity of SP per surface area of the powder content.
