چکیده

Nowadays, oil companies employ nanofluid flooding to increase production from reservoirs. Herein the present work, a multiphase flow in porous media was used simulate extraction three-dimensional medium filled with oil. Interestingly, finite element method solve nonlinear partial differential equations of continuity, energy, Darcy’s law, and transport nanoparticles (NPs). The proposed model nanofluids (NFs) empirical formulas for density viscosity on NF relative permeabilities NP equations. NPs thermophysical properties have been investigated compared their recovery factor (ORF) determine highest ORF. Different (SiO2, CuO, Al2O3) were as first parameter, keeping all parameters constant. simulation run three times injected fluid using various compare effects enhanced recovery. second volume fraction (VF), has modeled six (0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5%), other held third inlet temperature (293.15–403.15 K), simulated assuming that are kept energy equation applied choose fits optimum VF Findings indicated SiO2 shows best ORF NPs. Remarkably, lowest thermal capacity. 4%, increasing but reduced when higher than 4%. improved decreased by temperature. Furthermore, results 37% obtained at 353.15 K At same time, is 5% 403.15 K.

Experimental study on electromagnetic-assisted ZnO nanofluid flooding for enhanced oil recovery (EOR)

Recently, nano-EOR has emerged as a new frontier for improved and enhanced oil recovery (IOR & EOR). Despite their benefits, the nanoparticles tend to agglomerate at reservoir conditions which cause their detachment from the oil/water interface, and are consequently retained rather than transported through a porous medium. Dielectric nanoparticles including ZnO have been proposed to be a good r...

Flow Behavior and Displacement Mechanisms of Nanoparticle Stabilized Foam Flooding for Enhanced Heavy Oil Recovery

In this study, nanoparticle stabilized foam experiments were performed in bulk tests, micromodels, and sandpacks at elevated temperatures and pressures to investigate the flow behavior and displacement mechanisms for enhanced heavy oil recovery. The results from the bulk tests showed that the stability of the foam and oil in water (O/W) emulsion improved when silica nanoparticles (SiO2) were ad...
