Pore Network Modeling: Analysis of Pore Size Distribution of Arabian Core Samples
We use X-ray microtomography (micro-CT) to image rock cuttings of poorly consolidated sandstone and vuggy carbonate from Saudi Arabian oil and gas fields. The cuttings are a few mm across and are imaged to a resolution between 3 and 12 microns. The details of the three-dimensional pore space can be clearly seen. A maximal ball algorithm is used to extract a topologically equivalent pore network...
متن کاملNuclear Pore Structure: Warming up the Core
Structural determination of the nuclear pore complex has been limited by the complexity and size of this cellular megalith. By taking advantage of exceptionally stable nucleoporins from the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum, Amlacher et al. (2011) provide new insight into a core element of the nuclear pore scaffold.
متن کاملA 2d Dynamic Pore Network Model for Modeling Primary Drainage
We present a dynamic network model to investigate the effects of capillary number and viscosity ratio on displacement patterns and fractional flow in primary drainage. This model predicts the events that are observed in the micro-model experiments, such as swelling of the wetting layers and the meniscus oscillation. Interfaces are tracked through the pore elements using a modified Poiseuille eq...
متن کاملAn Irregular Lattice Pore Network Model Construction Algorithm
Pore network modeling uses a network of pores connected by throats to model the void space of a porous medium and tries to predict its various characteristics during multiphase flow of various fluids. In most cases, a non-realistic regular lattice of pores is used to model the characteristics of a porous medium. Although some methodologies for extracting geologically realistic irregular net...
متن کاملPore-scale network modeling of Ellis and Herschel–Bulkley fluids
Network modeling is used to study the flow in porous media of Ellis and Herschel–Bulkley fluids, which model a large group of time-independent non-Newtonian fluids. Previous work is extended to include yield-stress and shear-thickening phenomena. We use two topologically-disordered networks representing a sand pack and Berea sandstone. Analytical expressions for the volumetric flow rate in a si...
