  • Minimizing Fire Risk in Thermal Oil Heat Transfer Systems
    Thermal fluids have proven exceptionally safe in a wide range of industries. However, it is difficult to completely prevent fires in these systems because the necessary ingredients for a fire --fuel, air and ignition source --are present by design. The risk of fire can be minimized by observing
  • Why Is Mineral Oil Used In Thermal Heaters?
    Thermal heaters, also known as thermal fluid heaters, employ the use of a thermal liquid such as water, glycol, mineral oil, synthetic liquids or aromatics as the source of heat transfer. The medium for transferring heat is circulated within a closed loop system to supply heat to the end user
  • Pressure Transmitter on Heavy Oil Thermal Recovery Platforms
    Approximately 70% of the world's remaining oil resources are heavy oil. Compared with conventional light crude oil, heavy oil has high viscosity, greater density, poor fluidity, and is temperature-sensitive, making it difficult to develop economically and effectively by conventional recovery
  • Thermal Fluid vs. Steam
    Replacing steam in a broad range of process applications, thermal fluid systems provide precise, uniform temperature control leading to increased production and product quality, low maintenance, human and environmental safety and years of highly efficient service. Hot oil systems provide
  • Design Considerations for Thermal Controls
    are designing an oil-filled heater, you. don't want to place the thermal device so close to the heat source that it barely allows the appliance to function. But you don't want it. mounted so far away that the oil in the heater boils creating a potentially hazardous situation for the consumer
  • Advantages of Thermal Fluid Heating Systems
    Hot oil (Also known as thermal fluid) heating systems are used in a number of industrial processes. Oil, glycol, and water are the most typical mediums for this process...We take a look at some of the advantages of thermal fluid heating systems
  • Foamy Oil PVT and Rheology Measurements (.pdf)
    "Foamy oil" phenomenon is associated with primary cold production, a non-thermal recovery process, from heavy-oil reservoirs producing under solution-gas drive mechanism. The "foamy oil" hypothesis used to explain the unusually high production is still much debated. A number of heavy oil solution
  • High-Performance Fans for Oil-Cooled Transformers
    for managing the thermal load. The airflow profile of an axial fan is ideal for dissipating waste heat to prevent damage associated with overheating and to ensure safe operation of high-power, oil-cooled transformers.
  • Solar Powered Thermal Mass Flow Meters for Oil Field Flare Gas Monitoring System
    How do you operate new gas flow meters at an oil field without utility power service in the remote southern Bakken formation region of North Dakota? That was the challenge facing Legacy Reserves LP at remote sites in the Williston Basin, North Dakota.
  • Custom Thermal Fluid System for a Biodiesel Processing Application
    Biodiesel and biodiesel blends are renewable, clean-burning alternative fuels produced from a diverse mix of waste oils, such as vegetable oil, soybean oil, and animal fats. A commercial-scale producer contracted with us to engineer a custom thermal fluid heating system for use in their bio-diesel
  • Ammonia Pressure Measurement using Thermal Flash Protection (.pdf)
    or below. This accelerated change, along with the type of sensor diaphragm material affects the pressure transducer performance and ultimately the control system. Other Pressure Sensing Technologies: O-ring sealed pressure sensors cannot withstand rapid thermal changes and over time the internal
  • Location of Defects in Pipelines Using Thermal Infrared Imagery (.pdf)
    Corrosion leads to degradation and mechanical decay of metallic materials. The thickness variation caused by corrosion in oil pipelines can change heat flow condition, resulting in fluctuation of surface temperature detectable by thermal infrared sensors. The current state-of-the-art in this field
