Abstract

It is well recognized that a major issue for fluid flows in many industrial pipe systems, including the transportation of crude oil, is the high energy consumption in the pipeline system brought on by significant pressure losses in turbulent flows. The reduction of apparent viscosity and drag are two important challenges in order to enhance crude oil flow conditions in long-distance pipelines. Chemical techniques are seen to be the most efficient and practical ways to handle these problems. The pressure drop through a pipeline can be decreased by adding a tiny quantity of drag-reducing agents (DRA) to the flow of crude oil, which is a commonly employed approach. As a result, the energy usage drops for a certain flow rate. In the field of reducing crude oil drag, polymer and surfactant additives have been extensively used for this purpose. Therefore, a literature review of published experimental work relating to drag reduction by DRA in single-phase crude oil flow is discussed in this paper in order to better understand the mechanism of the drag reduction phenomena in crude oil pipelines.

单相原油流减阻技术综述
众所周知,在包括原油运输在内的许多工业管道系统中,流体流动的一个主要问题是湍流中巨大的压力损失给管道系统带来的高能耗。为了改善原油在长输管道中的流动状况,降低表观粘度和表观阻力是两项重要的挑战。化学技术被认为是处理这些问题最有效和最实用的方法。在原油中加入少量的减阻剂(DRA)可以减小管道的压降,这是一种常用的方法。因此,在一定的流量下,能量的使用会下降。在降低原油阻力方面,聚合物和表面活性剂添加剂已被广泛使用。因此,为了更好地理解原油管道中减阻现象的机理,本文将对已发表的有关单相原油流动中DRA减阻实验工作进行文献综述。
