Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Laboratory tests have been conducted on four grades of oils from different fields. The results of the conducted tests on the effects of electromagnetic radiation on oil rheology have been presented. An analysis has been made of the effects of electromagnetic treatment on the characteristics of transportation of high-viscosity oil using the example of the operation of an oil pumping station.
