Study on Combustion Property of Crude Oil - a Joint Study between Nist / Cfr and Fri -
نویسنده
چکیده
In order to understand the combustion properties of crude oi I pool fires. an experimental study was done in Fire Research lnstitute(FRI) large scale test faci I ity. The radiative output, burning rate, and the concentrations of CO, CO 2 , and smoke (above the flame tip) were measured during the burn ing of Arabian I ight crude oi I. Several different size tanks were used to study the scale effect. Crude oi I burned less rapidly and gave off less thermal radiation compared with heptane, but when water boi ling occurred the burning rate and thermal radiation increased by a factor of two or more. Water boi I ing is a kind of boi lover phenomenon and which intensity is most related with tank size and fuel layer thicl<ness.

A Study on Structure and Property of Special Sulfonated Petroleum as a Complicated Anionic Surfactant
Alkaline/surfactant/polymer (ASP) flooding has been extensively applied to enhancing oil recovery. As an oil displacement agent, pe1troleum sulfonate (PS) is widely used in ASP pilot experiments. It is very important to find a petroleum sulfonate with a high interfacial activity and low adsorption loss. Anionic surfactant petroleum sulfonate is synthesized in a single-tube film sulfonation reac...
متن کاملAn Experimental Investigation of Water Effects on Asphaltene Surface Behavior through Interfacial Tension Measurements
As a physiochemical property, asphaltenes are known to be one the most surface active compounds in crude oil. Due to such property, their behavior is most probably influenced by fluid-fluid interactions at the contact surface (interface). Potentially and naturally, in most cases, water is in contact with crude oil and is co-produced with it as well. Considering that asphaltene molecules are pol...

In this study, preheated crude sunflower oil at 75C was used in a fourcylinder, naturally aspirated, indirect injection diesel engine. The experiments were conducted at the constant engine speeds under the full load condition of the engine to determine the performance, combustion, and injection characteristics of test fuels. The engine test results have been compared with the reference values t...

A study was conducted in 2010 to investigate the effects of crude oil contaminated soil on biomass accumulation inJatropha curcas seedlings in Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria. Oil levels used were 0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 and 10.0% w/w. The trial was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications and monitored for 12 weeks after transplanting. Results showed that contamination...
متن کاملA Copula-based Quantile Model for Crude oil Return-Volatility Dependence Modelling: Case of Iran Heavy Oil
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between Iran’s heavy crude oil price returns and volatility dependence using the Copula-based quantile model (CQM). CQM is an efficient tool for analyzing nonlinear time series models as it has no need for initial assumptions. We use monthly data from January 1990 to December 2019. We use the Hadrick-Prescott filter to calculate...
