The formation of a deposit or film on the surface of heat                       exchange devices reduces the rate of heat transfer and,                         correspondingly, the efficiency.  The negative impact of the                    fouling amounts to billions of dollars per year.  To control                    fouling, its root causes must be understood.  The present                       proposal seeks to understand the causes of biofouling.  The                     relationship between biofilm thickness, pressure drop, and heat                 transfer in a circular tube will be investigated.  The use of                   sensors to detect the degree of fouling will be explored.
