21、stD4778 1528.1.1 Placement of the test device with respect to thecooling water system is an important factor in monitoringfouling and corrosion in interpreting the test results. Foulingand corrosion are both affected by temperature. In the case ofcorrosion, the higher the water temperature, the grea

22、ter will bethe corrosivity of the water. Fouling, however, is a far morecomplex phenomenon, involving one or more of several typesof foulants, namely, particulate matter, precipitates, biomass,corrosion products, and contamination. There are five phasesinvolved in the fouling phenomenon: initiation,

23、 attachment,removal, transport, and aging.8.1.2 Several of the foulants are temperature sensitive.Precipitates, such as calcium carbonate, tend to precipitatemore rapidly as temperatures increase. Most biomasses, on theother hand, would agglomerate more rapidly at temperaturesbetween 90 and 105F (32

24、.2 and 40C).8.1.3 The test device may be installed to take its inlet waterfrom one of three locations: cold water supply to a heatexchanger, a heat exchanger outlet, or warm water return to thecooling tower. The choice of location is a function of the typeof fouling problem(s) experienced with the p

25、articular system.No matter where it is placed, the fouling conditions in the testdevice should simulate the plant equipment as closely aspossible. Specifically, the surface or interface temperature andthe shear stress of the water film against the heated surface inthe test device should be the same

26、as in the plant equipmentbeing monitored.8.2 Determination of Setup Conditions:8.2.1 Calculate plant heat exchange conditions as follows:Vp5 0.408Fp!P/D2N!
