Evaluating Crude Oil Blending with Jet-Mixers using CFD

Crude oil blending is a critical refinery operation where improper mixer configuration can result in non-uniform blends and significant financial losses. This case study focuses on evaluating jet-mixer configurations inside blending tanks using Computational Fluid Dynamics.

CFD analysis helped visualize mixing patterns, flow circulation, and blending effectiveness, enabling the identification of optimal jet-mixer placement and operating conditions to achieve consistent and reliable blending performance.
