Abstract
Brine flow characteristics with drag reduction surfactant are important to reduce energy consumption in a pipeline system. Oleyldihydroxyetyl Arhine Oxide (ODEAO) reported as an effective drag reduction surfactant additive was add to Ethylene Glycol (EG) solution at 40wt% as the brine in the present study. The friction factor and heat transfer coefficient of the Ethylene' Glycol solution with ODEAO were measured as a function of various solution temperatures. It was found that the solution temperature has exerted an influence on the flow drag and heat transfer reduction rate of the EG solution with the ODEAO surfactant.
