Abstract

Scaling of copper heat exchanger tubes has been studied under conditions that promote rapid and severe scaling. Artificially hardened water of high dissolved and suspended solids is recirculated through a heated test section operated at constant steam temperature. The effects of flow velocity, tube diameter, and bulk temperature on the asymptotic fouling resistance have been determined. Results are interpreted in terms of mathematical models of the scaling process.
