These conditions can contribute to:
- Restricted circulation flow
- Unstable pump performance
- Reduced transfer readiness
- Localized solidification zones
- Loading and transfer delays
- Increased reheating demand
- Higher fuel and power consumption
- Operational interruptions during storage and handling
In many conventional heating arrangements, reheating is concentrated primarily near localized heating sections. Although oil near the heat source may temporarily achieve acceptable flow conditions, cooler regions can still persist across other areas of the tank volume.
