Thermal characteristics of waxy crude oil during its static cooling in an overhead pipeline

By means of additional specific heat capacity and momentum source term methods, the thermal characteristics of waxy crude oil during its static cooling in an overhead pipeline after shutdown are investigated by the numerical simulation. According to the different thermal performances, the cooling ca...
