A model for the particle migration in a bidisperse flowing suspension is proposed and compared to experimental data. A mixture formulation, describing the suspension velocity and pressure and the concentrations of two solid fractions is derived from a multi-fluid model. In the multi-fluid model the liquid phase and both dispersed phases are interpenetrating phases. The closure relations are based on a mean field approach extending closure relations of a monodisperse suspension. The model is used to predict segregation based on particle size in channel flow where the particles are subjected to Brownian motion and shear-induced migration. The comparison of the model results with experimental data shows that particle migration is predicted well by the given formulation.
