A vast majority of heat exchangers suffer from unwanted deposition of material on the
surface, which severely inhibits their performance and thus marks one of the biggest …

A wide range of industrial processes (ie, evaporation and condensation in desalination
process, steam power plant, solar plant, etc.) involve heat transfer among the fluids. During …

Scaling on the heat exchanger surface resulted in large equipment cleaning, maintenance
expenses and safety issues in the industrial production. To remove the heat exchanger …

Numerous studies on particulate fouling and crystallization fouling have been performed
separately. By examining recent studies on crystallization fouling, the existence of a study …

Accelerated fouling tests using water conditions more severe than actual project have been
proven that it could not truthfully reflect the fouling development. To fill the research gaps of …

The effect of high voltage electrostatic field and high voltage alternating current electric field
on the heat exchanger surface fouling under the conditions of hard water was investigated …

Electrochemical technologies play an important role in the effective management of
industrial wastewater. However, a persistent challenge lies in the diminished treatment …

Corrosion deposition in heat exchangers may lead to a reduction in heat transfer efficiency,
and even can affect equipment operational safety. Traditional CFD deposition heat transfer …

In this work, inorganic fouling of the heat transfer surfaces from potable water has been
studied using a once-through flow cell to visualize and follow the deposition processes. The …

Crystallization fouling is an ongoing concern for many heat transfer systems, and simulating
fouling formation under various flow and heat transfer conditions is crucial for predicting …
