Increase in efficiency of high-viscosity fluid transportation on the facilities of FEC

Abstract

© 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved. The thermal method of increasing the efficiency of high-viscosity fluid transportation is considered, using the example of M100 fuel oil. The graphical dependences of the dynamic fluid viscosity on the temperature, the kinematic viscosity on the consumption of a heating steam and on the power of heating pads provided that high-viscosity fluid is heated, as well as the Prandtl number on the heat output of a heater, are obtained.
