Nano Additives Influence on Fuel Oil Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

The experimental investigations of the dynamic viscosity of the M100 brand heavy fuel oil with addition of nanostructured additives at temperatures of 65 °C and 75 °C have been presented. The study of the dynamic viscosity conducted for M100 fuel oil sample with the addition of a suspension of carbon nanotubes dispersed in diproksamin (concentration of 0.0125 wt.% CNT + 0.5 wt.% diproksamin) showed its decrease in almost the entire range of shear rates. The reduction in viscosity was observed even at low shear rates, which indicates the absence of extensive spatial structure in the oil heterogeneous system. Thus, the additive based on carbon nanotubes dispersed in diproksamin, improves the rheological properties of oil, reducing its viscosity to 12-15%. Therefore the energy consumption for fuel oil heating and pumping through pipelines can be reduced.
