Hello.
I have a liquid flowing through a pipe, which produces laminar flowrate properties. The boundary layer produced by this is considered to be a thin film. The pipe is exposed to high temperatures which degrade the flowing liquid.
If the flowrate is reduced, does the boundary layer...
Does anybody know why kerosene fed vaporising burners choke with carbon deposits? Is the existence of heavy hydrocarbons within the fuel to blame? Is the fuel being exposed to high temperatures which induce carboning before it has time to reach the burner to evaporate? Any views are greatly...
