Abstract
For producing controlled precipitation in fluid flowing through a pipe, a coil of electric wire is applied to the pipe segment in which this controlled precipitation is to be produced. This coil may be in the form of an induction coil wrapped around the pipe. Or the coil may be of a flat, rectangular spiral form. In any case, the coil is applied in such a way that the center of its curvature does not coincide with the pipe axis. Instead, this center of coil curvature is offset from the pipe axis. Preferably, this offset is approximately equal to the radius of the pipe.
