Abstract

Experiments were carried out with waterhydrocarbon emulsions with various emulsifiers in capillaries with a length of 2 cm, diameters of 40 and 100 µm. To eliminate the influence of mechanical impurities comparable in size with the diameter of the capillary in first case emulsion components were filtered through fine-meshed filters. In second case obtained that way emulsion was additionally filtered through a system consisting of 3 filters with a cell size of 30-40 microns. In a capillary of 100 µm such emulsion came in a blocked state. Additional filtration of the emulsion through the mesh filters have led to an increase in viscosity but in 100 µm capillaries the time until the blocking 2-3 times more than the original. Rheology of used emulsions is well described by the model of Ostwald-de Waale. It was determined that emulsion blocking mechanism is due to the presence of inclusions not emulsion viscosity.
