The regularities of changes in energy consumption to reduce the viscosity of highly paraffinic oil during processing in an installation based on a rotary impulse apparatus (RIA) are experimentally investigated. The decrease in oil viscosity during processing in RIA exceeds 40%. An increase in the amount of oil supply to the RIA makes it possible to reduce the specific energy consumption for its processing at the same relative value of the decrease in viscosity. Specific energy consumption decreases with an increase in oil consumption through the RIA according to the dependence close to the logarithmetic one.
