The invention discloses a method and equipment for testing agglomerated and deposited
asphaltene particles and deposition thickness, which are characterized in that
crude oil and a
settling agent are mixed under a set temperature condition, the mixed mixture gradually enters a sample tube, when a
test tube is filled with the mixture, the
crude oil is injected into the sample tube at different flow rates respectively, and the
settling agent is added into the sample tube; recording the
inlet pressure and the outlet pressure of the sample tube in real time; calculating the
pressure difference of the sample tube, and calculating the deposition thickness of
asphaltene in the
crude oil at different flow velocities in real
time based on the
pressure difference of the sample tube; when the experiment is finished, collecting the sediments in the mixed liquid, obtaining the initial particle size of the sediments in the mixed liquid, replacing the residual liquid in the sample tube,
drying and collecting the sediments precipitated in the sample tube, and obtaining the particle size of the sediments collected at the moment; according to the method, the deposition thickness of
asphaltene in deposited crude oil at different flow rates and the particle size of deposited particles can be obtained, and prediction of the size and the deposition thickness of
asphalt agglomerated deposited particles in application is facilitated.
