What is the impact of crude oil viscosity on the operation of screw pumps?

Reply #22023-06-14

When the viscosity of crude oil is high, it reduces the flow rate of the screw pump, increases pressure, lowers efficiency, and may even lead to blockages or overheating. At the same time, it also increases the frictional resistance of the screw pump, accelerates equipment wear, and shortens its service life. Therefore, when choosing to use screw pumps for crude oil transportation, it is necessary to consider the effect of crude oil viscosity on the operation of the equipment, and adjust the process parameters appropriately to ensure its normal operation and prolong its service life. .
