Abstract:
A tester, systems and method for testing hydrocarbons are provided. The tester includes a test module supporting the component thereabout. The test module is operatively connectable to a fluid source to receive the hydrocarbon therefrom. A recirculation circuit is operatively connectable to the fluid circuit about the test module to recirculate the hydrocarbon thereabout whereby the hydrocarbon is passed over at least a portion of the component. The method involves passing the hydrocarbon over at least a portion of a plurality of the components, recirculating the hydrocarbon over the portion of each of the components, and performing a material test on each of the components.
