  2. Shale shakers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shale_shakers

    Shale shakers are components of drilling equipment used in many industries, such as coal cleaning, mining, oil and gas drilling.They are the first phase of a solids control system on a drilling rig, and are used to remove large solids ( cuttings) from the drilling fluid ("mud"). Drilling fluids are integral to the drilling process and, among ...

  4. Solids control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solids_control

    Solids control. Three deck shale shaker, part of a solids control system. Solids control is a process used in drilling rigs which use drilling fluid. It involves separating the "cuttings" (drilled material) from the fluid, allowing it to be recirculated or discharged to the environment. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_mixer

    Vortex mixer. A vortex mixer, or vortexer, is a simple device used commonly in laboratories to mix small vials of liquid. It consists of an electric motor with the drive shaft oriented vertically and attached to a cupped rubber piece mounted slightly off-center. As the motor runs the rubber piece oscillates rapidly in a circular motion.

  7. Shear thinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_thinning

    In polymer systems such as polymer melts and solutions, shear thinning is caused by the disentanglement of polymer chains during flow. At rest, high molecular weight polymers are entangled and randomly oriented. However, when undergoing agitation at a high enough rate, these highly anisotropic polymer chains start to disentangle and align along ...

  8. Drill cuttings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_cuttings

    Drill cuttings are produced as the rock is broken by the drill bit advancing through the rock or soil; the cuttings are usually carried to the surface by drilling fluid circulating up from the drill bit. Drill cuttings can be separated from liquid drilling fluid by shale shakers, by centrifuges, or by cyclone separators, the latter also being ...

  9. Acrylic painting techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_painting_techniques

    Fluid paint, in general, is a moveable form of acrylic paint. Fluid paints can be used like watercolors, for acrylic pouring, or for glazing and washes. To create a more fluid consistency, water or a pouring medium is added to the paint. The ratio of paint to water/pouring medium depends on how thick the glaze or pouring paint is expected to be.
