[0002] Pipeline transportation has developed into the fifth largest transportation mode in the world after highway, railway, aviation and water transportation. In recent years, the slurry pipeline transportation technology in China has achieved cross-line, multi-type, long-distance and other developments and improvements. Slurry pipeline transportation has expanded from steel and metallurgical mines to non-ferrous and non-metallic mine tailings transportation, mine cement filling, ocean mining, coal transportation and other industrial fields. In the actual production of slurry pipeline transportation, critical flow velocity and resistance loss are almost the key to determine whether the pipeline operation is successful or not. Critical flow velocity and resistance loss are greatly related to the flow state change of the slurry inside the pipeline, and the observation of the flow state of the slurry inside the slurry pipeline is particularly important.
