Why does increased water temperature accelerate scaling?

Direct Conclusion

The solubility of salts such as calcium carbonate decreases as temperature rises, making precipitation more likely at higher heat exchange surface temperatures.

Judgment Criteria

  1. 01

    The heat exchanger tube wall temperature is typically higher than the water temperature, making it a high-risk zone for crystallization.

  2. 02

    High temperatures also accelerate microbial and algal growth, forming mixed deposits.
