Abstract: | Heat exchanger fouling tests were conducted at Raft River to establish the geothermal fluid side fouling factors to be used in the Raft River thermal loop design. The tests were first conducted with materials that would not corrode severely to determine the effect of potential mineral deposition. These tests are currently being repeated using carbon steel and Monel 400. This report describes the test system and test results. | ||
