Modelling droplet size distribution in inline electrostatic coalescers for improved crude oil processing
Abstract Water-in-oil emulsions pose significant challenges in the petroleum and chemical industrial processes, necessitating the coalescence enhancement of dispersed water droplets in emulsified oils. This study develops a mathematical model to predict the evolution of water droplet size distributi...
