Inclusion of the Memory Function in Describing the Flow of Shear-Thinning Fluids in Porous Media
This paper introduces mathematical models with memory to present the complex rheological phenomena combining the in situ shear rate and bulk rheology with fluid memory. The models are solved numerically and the results compared with established experimental data available in the literature. The new models showed excellent agreement with experimental results for the region where most existing mo...
متن کاملFlow control of fluids through porous media
This paper discusses flow control of fluids through porous media, specifically related to its application in petroleum science. The flow of fluids is described by the Boussinesq equation with mixed boundary conditions; a Neumann boundary condition describes no flow at the outer boundary of the porous media and a nonlinear boundary condition describes the interaction between the porous media and...
متن کاملTurbulent pipe flow of shear-thinning fluids
Direct numerical simulation of the weakly turbulent flow of non-Newtonian fluids is undertaken for two different generalised Newtonian rheology models using a spectral element-Fourier method. Results for a power law (shear-thinning) rheology agree well with experimentally determined logarithmic layer correlations and with other previously published experimental work. As the flow index becomes s...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulation of flow of fluids through porous media
This simulation employs Monte Carlo technique for studying fluid flow through a porous medium in the capillary regime. The medium has been modelled as a 2 or 3-dimensional network of elements, some of which are randomly closed to the fluid flow. Dijkstra's algorithm has been employed to identify the least-resistance pathway, which is instrumental in determining the minimum pressure required to ...
متن کاملThe Flow of Fluids in Porous Media
This lecture will outline the developments over the past two years of Todd Dupont and the author on problems of flow of fluids in porous media arising from petroleum reservoir engineering. Two specific problems will be discussed and a third mentioned. The first is the single-phase flow of a non-ideal gas. This flow can be described by a nonlinear parabolic equation. The second is the two-phase ...
