NUMERICAL MODELING OF ASPHALTENE DEPOSITION [PDF]
Computational Thermal Sciences, 2013 Asphaltene deposition on the walls of wellbore or pipeline during oil production and processing will cause dire consequences if left untreated. A better understanding of this phenomenon is required. This study presents a general modelling framework based either on the level-set approach or the concentration approach for modelling asphaltene deposition ...
