Figure 1. A faulty flame disperser may cause the coils adjacent to the flame to absorb more heat energy than optimally designed. February 15, 2022 Heat transfer fluids are often taken for granted, ...

To understand viscosity, laminar flow must be understood. This is when a gas or fluid flowing over a surface results in the molecules next to the surface having zero speed. As the distance from the ...

The trade-offs necessary to choose a fluid involve a consideration of application requirements such as health, safety, and environmental effects, and fluid properties such as viscosity, stability, ...

This article explores viscosity terms and definitions, unraveling the intricacies of fluid behavior. Absolute Viscosity - The force required for a liquid to overcome its internal friction and commence ...

Sound waves can measure viscosity on the fly. Though viscosity is the degree to which a fluid resists flow, it is more specifically a measure of a fluid's molecular friction. It can be a useful ...

Researchers have used computer modeling to design carbon dioxide binding materials so that they retain a low viscosity after sponging up carbon dioxide, based on a surprise they found in their ...

Rig-site fluid test automation has lagged automated drilling technology and is now a bottleneck to real-time drilling diagnostics and decisions. A new automated mud skid (AMS) addresses this gap by ...
