Abstract :
The elimination of paraffin plugs in the oil bore equipment by means of powerful non-stationary RF-radiation has been studied. By means of numerical solution of the heat equation, the dynamics of the paraffin plug melting has been clarified and the time of its elimination has been calculated depending on the duty cycle of the electromagnetic signal and the duration of the single pulse.
