DRAG REDUCTION WITH POLYMER MIXTURES IN OIL-WATER FLOWS: EFFECT OF SYNERGY

The pressure drop encountered during horizontal pipeline flows in chemical and petroleum industries require high pumping energy. An economical approach has been reported where small amount of higher molecular weight polymeric solution can lead to large decrease in pressure drop. In this work, drag r...
