On the Theory of Salt Washout from Water-Oil Emulsion with Fresh Water

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

A theoretical model describing the motion of particles of salt water in oil which flow around a larger drop of fresh water has been developed to solve the problem of cleaning oil from salts. The results of calculations of the effect of the radius and initial velocity of a drop of fresh water on the coagulation of fresh and salt water drops are presented.
