Population Balance Modeling for Integrating Hydrodynamics with Electrostatics in Crude Oil Electrocoalescers

A particular population balance model (PBM) which consists of hydrodynamic and electrostatic parts is developed for electrocoalescence of distributed water droplet in the continuous oil phase. The approach is the modification of a recognized PBM by adding the electrostatic effects on the overall coa...
