The Performances of Internal Helical-Rib Roughness Tubes Under Fouling Conditions: Practical Cooling Tower Water Fouling and Accelerated Particulate Fouling

摘要

This paper addresses fouling in a family of seven copper helically ribbed tubes. Series of semi-theoretical linear fouling correlations for long term combined precipitation and paniculate fouling (PPF) in cooling tower systems and for accelerated paniculate fouling were developed.
