Abstract :
In this paper, we carried out some experiments on fouling characteristics of spiral grooved tubes and smooth tube in many kinds of experimental conditions and parameters of spiral grooved tubes. As compared with the smooth tube, the spiral groove tube has a good anti-fouling property in higher hardness of water, higher cold-water inlet temperature and lower cold-water flow velocity. And we have found a kind of spiral grooved tube which has a good anti-fouling in a variety of conditions.
