A Porous Media Model for Blood Flow within Reticulated Foam.
A porous media model is developed for non-Newtonian blood flow through reticulated foam at Reynolds numbers ranging from 10-8 to 10. This empirical model effectively divides the pressure gradient versus flow speed curve into three regimes, in which either the non-Newtonian viscous forces, the Newtonian viscous forces, or the inertial fluid forces are most prevalent. When compared to simulation ...
متن کاملNumerical Calculation of Flow Characteristics of Enhanced Foam System in Porous Medium
Abstract: Enhanced foam flooding is a chemical flooding technology, which is applied to improve the recovery efficiency of oil and gas. The oil displacement agent of enhanced foam flooding is a foam that the polymer and surfactant solution as liquid. In this paper, three-dimensional mathematical model of unsteady flow is established about enhanced foam system in the porous media, and the numeri...
متن کاملEffect of gas type on foam film permeability and its implications for foam flow in porous media.
The aim of this paper is to provide a perspective on the effect of gas type on the permeability of foam films stabilized by different types of surfactant and to present a critical overview of the tracer gas experiments, which is the common approach to determine the trapped fraction of foam in porous media. In these experiments some part of the gas is replaced by a "tracer gas" during the steady...
متن کاملSPE 131297 Effect of gas type on foam film permeability and its implications for foam flow in porous media
The ability of foam to control the gas mobility in porous media is determined in part by the trapped (stationary) fraction of foam, Xt. The common approach to determining Xt is to replace some part of the gas by a “tracer gas” during the steady-state stage of the experiments and fitting the effluent data to a capacitance mass-transfer model. Diffusion between bubbles is quantified by the film p...
