New ways to improve the efficiency of railway transportation of viscous petroleum products
V. I. Moiseev
Abstract:The paper proposes a new approach to solving the problem of increasing the economic efficiency of railway transportation of viscous petroleum fuels (fuel oils) at low air temperatures. The physical properties of fuel oils allow them to be obtained when poured into the tank of a tank wagon in a stratified state, when their density in the upper part of the tank is significantly less than in its lower part. This blocks the natural convection of hot fuel oil on the cold walls of the tank, and it cools only due to … Show more
