Mo P22 Recovery of Light Oil by Air Injection

Foam-improved oil recovery: Modelling the effect of an increase in injection pressure.

A model, called pressure-driven growth, is analysed for propagation of a foam front through an oil reservoir during improved oil recovery using foam. Numerical simulations of the model predict, not only the distance over which the foam front propagates, but also the instantaneous front shape. A particular case is studied here in which the pressure used to drive the foam along is suddenly increa...

Air Flow Detection in Crude Oil by Infrared Light

In this paper, we used infrared light in the range of 8-12 μm to develop and test an optical imaging system to detect air bubbles flowing in oil. The system basically comprises a broadband light source and a 31 × 32 thermopile array to generate images. To analyze the effects related to light absorption, reflection, and refraction on air-oil boundaries, a numerical model was developed and the pr...

investigation of effective parameters on the rigidity of light composite diaphragms (psscb) by fem

در این رساله با معرفی سقف های psscb متشکل از ترکیب ورق های فولادی ذوزنقه ای و تخته های سیمانی الیافی به عنوان سقف های پیش ساخته (سازگار با سیستم سازه ای قاب های فولادی سبک) به بررسی پارامترهای موثر بر صلبیت سقف، پرداخته می شود. در تحقیق حاضر ابتدا به مدل سازی دو نمونه سقف آزمایش شده، به روش اجزاء محدود با استفاده از نرم افزار تحلیلی abaqus ver 6.10 پرداخته شده است. نمونه های ساخته شده تحت اعما...

Improved oil recovery in nanopores: NanoIOR

Fluid flow through minerals pores occurs in underground aquifers, oil and shale gas reservoirs. In this work, we explore water and oil flow through silica nanopores. Our objective is to model the displacement of water and oil through a nanopore to mimic the fluid infiltration on geological nanoporous media and the displacement of oil with and without previous contact with water by water floodin...
