Answer / karthick
if oil is mixed with water,oil will form a layer over the
surface of the water this is because the sp.gravity of oil
is lesser than water so it floats over the surface.this
resists the formation of steam to a large extent that is it
doesnot make evaporation of water instead foaming occurs

Answer / kubes
If oil is mixed with water foaming will occur in boiler
steam drum.drum water level goes up and down it will
confusing the boiler operator .drum level trasmitter will
block because of air lock. steam purtiy will be affect.

Answer / chaitanya pithawa
this will not allow to evaporate the water properly and the
temperature will increase,and oil wont evaporate,it may
stick with surface and proper heat transfer might not be
occured,if oil evaporates then it will affect the turbine
blading.

Answer / saurabh agarwal
Oil when mixed with water- Emulsion takes place. When combustion of oil happens a micro-explosion takes place which atomizes the the water droplet. Thus, higher surface area created supports better heat transfer to the fluit in lesser time.

6 Answers Dr Reddys, IGCAR, Reddy Labs,
My vendor filled liquid oxygen in our 11000 liter capacity tank. He filled from 1400 MMWC up to 3200 MMWC. I followed the provided conversion table and found that we had been supplied 1800 MMWC liquid which is going to yield 2815 cubic meter. On the other hand, the vendor claims that he supplied as follows:- 5236 cub mtr(3200 MMWC)-2124 cub mtr(1400MMWC) = 3112 cub mtr. I fear that he wants to charge 297 cubic meters extra. He claims that my method was wrong and his was right. He says that this disparity is because of the conical shape of the base of the flask. I will be thankful if somebody can explain me the truth.
