Immobilized particles in gel matrix-type porous media. Homogeneous porous media model.
Diffusion in pure gels and gels with immobilized cells was analyzed. A model of diffusion assuming a homogeneous cell distribution in gel was improved by introducing a tortuosity value. By theoretical analysis and numerical modeling it was shown that the tortuosity of a gel with immobilized cells is the product of two factors: (1) tortuosity generated by the cells, Tc, and (2) tortuosity of the...
متن کاملFlows through Nonhomogeneous Porous Media in an Isolated Environment
The nonhomogeneous gas or fluid flowing through a nonhomogeneous porous medium is studied. An interesting phenomenon is discussed which shows that the state of the flow is not affected by the surrounding environment if some hypotheses are made on the porosity of the gas, the viscosity, and the permeability of the medium. Such a state is called an isolated environment. The conditions under which...
متن کاملInvestigation of Pressure Pulse Distribution in Porous Media
Diffusivity equation commonly used for pressure distribution prediction in porous media results from substituting equation of state and continuity equation in Navier-Stokes momentum equation. From mathematical point of view this equation format shows infinite propagation speed for pressure pulse through porous media, which is physically impossible. This issue may caused by numerous assumption...
متن کاملCapture of particles in soft porous media.
We investigate the capture of particles in soft porous media. Liquid foam constitutes a model system for such a study, allowing the radii of passage in the pore space to be tuned over several orders of magnitude by adjusting the liquid volume fraction. We show how particle capture is determined by the coupling of interstitial liquid flow and network deformation, and present a simple model of th...
متن کاملSPE 115678 Modeling Particle Gel Propagation in Porous Media
Gel treatments are a proven cost-effective method to reduce excess water production and improve sweep efficiency in waterflood reservoirs. A newer trend in gel treatments uses particle gel (PG) to overcome some distinct drawbacks inherent in in-situ gelation systems. In this paper, we present a conceptual numerical model, based on laboratory tests and analyses, to simulate PG propagation throug...
