Abstract
Overall total length of hydraulic pipe to transport the hot water in the domestic district heating network is above 3,000 Km approximately. This long pipe network requires a lots of the transport pumping power by surface friction of fluid. In this study, the drag reduction(DR) of Amin Oxide $C_{18}$ as non-ionic surfactant according to the fluid velocity, temperature and surfactant concentration under the condition of above $80^{\circ}C$ fluid temperature were investigated experimentally. Results showed that new amin oxide $C_{18}$ surfactant had DR of maximum 30% in fluid temperature of $80^{\circ}C$ and had 15% DR in fluid temperature over $100^{\circ}$ under short time test condition. And amine oxide had 155 hours duration time to keep the DR characteristic in the fluid temperature of $80^{\circ}$ and 1000 ppm concentration. But duration time of DR was decreased when fluid temperature increased.
