Evaluation of Surfactant Drag Reduction Effect in a District Heating System

A scale-up method proposed by Hoyt was used to evaluate the flow resistance of working fluid in a district heating system (DHS) after a surfactant drag reducer, CTAC/NaSal, was added. The measured drag reduction data of 100 ppm surfactant solution obtained from an 18.5 mm diameter pipe in the labora...
