Because crude oil has Fe, Mg, Ca, P, V, S, Zn, Co, clay, water
and other residuals, it has to distillate for internal
combustion engines.
Typical Oil
Gasoline C4 to C10 27%
Kerosene C11 to C13 13%
Diesel C14 to C18 12%
Heavy gas oil C19 to C25 10%
Lubricating oil C26-C40 20%
Residue >C40 18%
The first step is the transport of the crude oil from its natural location to the
refinery.
Once obtained from the ground, the oil is transported by ship, truck or
pipeline to the refinery.

Major products of oil refineries
Fractional distillation is used in oil refineries to separate crude oil into useful
substances (or fractions) having different hydrocarbons of different boiling points

Fuel Oil
Fuel oil is any liquid petroleum product that is burned in a furnace
to generate heat.
Fuel oil is also the heaviest commercial fuel that is produced from
crude oil.
It is mainly used as fuel in internal combustion engines, like the engines in cars.
Gasoline is a mixture of paraffins, naphthenes, and olefins, although the specific
ratios of these parts depends on the refinery where the crude oil is processed.
Gasoline refined beyond fractional distillation is often enhanced with iso-octane
and ethanol so that it is usable in cars.
Gasoline is called different things in different parts of the world.
Some of these names are: petrol, petroleum spirit, gas, petrogasoline, and
mogas.
Kerosene
Liquefied petroleum gas is a mixture of gases that are most often used in
heating appliances, aerosol propellants, and refrigerants.
Different kinds of liquefied petroleum gas, or LPG, are propane and
butane.
At normal atmospheric pressure, liquefied petroleum gas will evaporate,
so it needs to be contained in pressurized steel bottles.
Lubricating Oil
Bitumen
Bitumen, commonly known as tar, is a thick, black, sticky material.
Refined bitumen is the bottom fraction obtained by the fractional distillation of
crude oil.
This means that the boiling point of bitumen is very high, so it does not rise in
the distillation chamber. The boiling point of bitumen is 525° C.
Bitumen is used in paving roads and waterproofing roofs and boats. Bitumen is
also made into thin plates and used to sound proof dish washers and hard
drives in computers.
Petrol Fuel for cars and motorcycles, also used to make chemicals.

Broad chemical components of bitumen
It is convenient to separate bitumen into two broad chemical groups, called asphaltenes
and maltenes
Maltenes are further subdivided into saturates, aromatics and resins

Shear rate
where F is the applied force in N, A is area in m2, du/dy is the velocity gradient (or
rate of deformation), 1/s, perpendicular to flow direction, here assumed linear,
and μ is the proportionality constant defined as the dynamic or absolute
viscosity of the fluid.

Dynamic Viscosity
The dimensions for dynamic viscosity μ can be obtained from the
definition as Ns/m2 or kg/ms.
The first dimension set is more advantageously used in engineering
problems.
However, if the dimension of N is substituted, then the second
dimension set, more popularly used by scientists can be obtained.
The numerical value in both cases will be the same.

Elastic behavior
At low temperature and short duration loads:
Bitumen tends to act as an elastic solid, returning to its original
position after removal of the load;
Excessively low temperature in conjunction with rapid loading
may cause brittle failure and cracking;
Prolonged low temperature can cause a build-up of internal
stress resulting in cracking.
Viscous behavior
At elevated temperature and long duration
loads:
Bitumen acts as a viscous fluid - i.e. it
undergoes plastic deformation that is
not recovered
Flow takes place as adjacent molecules
flow past each other
The force resisting this flow is related
to the relative velocity of sliding
