Effect of Turbulence Enhancement on Crude Oil Fouling in a Batch Stirred Cell

A simple batch stirred cell (Young et al., 2011) has been used to investigate crude oil fouling on bare mild steel test probes and on similar probes fitted with thin wires used to promote turbulence and increase surface shear stresses. The results show that, under otherwise identical operating condi...
