Abstract: As is known, drag reducing agents (DRA) reduce not only the hydraulic resi-stance coefficient but also the turbulent diffusion magnitude of a moving fluid. When the mixture area moves through the pipeline, the concentration of the DRA gradually decreases, which leads to a decrease in its efficiency. The article deals with the main aspects that affect the determination of the amount of DRA added to the contact area under batching technology
