Résumé : |
Gelation and breakage of model wax―oil systems is investigated using microscopy, densitometry, rheometry, and XRD. Various model waxy oils are prepared, including 1 to 20 wt % (w/w) macrocrystalline wax in dodecane, 1 to 20 wt % microcrystalline wax in dodecane, and 5 wt % macrocrystalline wax in Primol 352. The influence of shear history, thermal history, and fluid composition is ascertained. A novel gel breakage model is introduced which spans the entire mechanical response of wax gels from initial Hookean behavior at low strains to equilibrium slurry flow at the infinite strain limit. The local rheology model will benefit shut-in and restart processes of waxy crude pipelines via application of standard fluid mechanics relationships. |
