Modeling of asphaltene particle deposition from turbulent oil flow in tubing: Model validation and a parametric study
The deposition of asphaltenes on the inner wall of oil wells and pipelines causes flow blockage and significant production loss in these conduits. The major underlying mechanism(s) for the deposition of asphaltene particles from the oil stream are still under investigation as an active research topi...
