... ABSTRACT Wax deposition prediction is of great significance for the waxy crude oil pipeline safety. Herein, the wax deposition characteristics of a new crude oil pipeline was experimentally studied in a laboratory flow loop device. It was found that the higher oil temperature and pipe/oil...

... conclusion based on the field application. Wang et al. (2018) conducted numerical simulation of the melting of gelled crude oil particles in a cylindrical container, studied the effects of crude oil radius, water temperature, and oil temperature on the melting of crude oil, and verified the simulation...

... in this situation have been studied. The results show that, compared with the plan that the inner ballast tank is filled with seawater, the plan that inner ballast tank is void is more conducive to the maintenance of oil temperature. No matter what ballast plan is, the temperature drop at the outer bottom edge...

... ABSTRACT For the convenience of the cargo oil offloading process, the high-viscosity crude oil in oil tankers needs to be heated and insulated to keep the cargo oil temperature above the freezing point. The thermodynamics associated with the oil heating/insulation process needs to be well...

... of the temperature curve and the derivation of the temperature. The experimental results show that, the oil temperature has obvious regional difference, the oil temperature in the upper part of the coil is obviously increased, but the oil temperature in the lower part of the coil has not changed obviously under...
