Heating diesel fuel in a small-volume fuel tanker
Abstract
The article is devoted to the issue of heating fuel in a tanker tank. Some reasons for the deterioration of the fluidity properties of diesel fuel under low temperature conditions are considered. Various design options for refueling tanks have been analyzed.
The design of a tanker made of composite material and options for the fuel heating system are considered.
An analysis of the factors influencing the provision of the required temperature regime for the transportation of diesel fuel was carried out. The means of maintaining the required regime are described.
The article presents the main provisions of the mathematical description of the temperature regime of transportation of fuel and lubricants. These dependencies make it possible to practically calculate heat losses and the required amount of heat.
The final part describes practical recommendations for ensuring the required temperature conditions for the transportation of diesel fuel under conditions of low negative temperatures.
