  • ESTIMATION OF COLD-FLOW PROPERTIES OF REFINERY PRODUCT BLENDS
    Publication number: 20160195506
    Abstract: Method(s) and system(s) for estimation of cold-flow properties of refinery product blends are described. The method may include receiving refinery products to be blended and ratios of the refinery products to be used for producing the refinery product blend, and determining whether the refinery products include at least one heavy product. The cold-flow property of the refinery product blend can be estimated based on a first correlation when the refinery products include the at least one heavy product, and based on a second correlation when the refinery products include no heavy product. The first correlation and the second correlation can differ in at least a sign of a coefficient.
