Hey BigInch,
I am struggling to convert the Cragoe Equation you provided. I'm not sure I have the parenthesis correct. Is it:
BTU/HR/FT2/(oF/INCH) = 0.813/(SG60 x (1-(0.003 x (oF - 32))))
or
BTU/HR/FT2/(oF/INCH) = 0.813/(SG60 x (1-0.003) x (oF - 32))
or
BTU/HR/FT2/(oF/INCH) = (0.813/SG60) x...
Thank you so much! This helps a lot. The only other piece I could use is the Thermal conductivity.
Snorgy - I checked around to see if I could find Combustion Engineering in Tulsa OK, and it appears they aren't in business any more. I appreciate your ethical concern - and honor it.
Thank you!
Can anyone help me estimate viscosity, specific heat and thermal conductivity for heavy crude oils? I need to do some flow simulations and evaluate fluid cooling due to ambient temperatures. I'm looking at a variety of heavy crudes - say from about API 20 down to API 12. I just need typicals...
