Fluids confined in porous media: An ideal gas in different matrices
نویسنده
چکیده
At present, a number of models are available describing the adsorption of a fluid in a random porous medium. In this paper, some exact and analytical results are presented. All the results are obtained for an ideal gas adsorbed in various porous matrices. It is shown that the calculations are not always trivial. In some cases of complicated matrices, it is impossible to obtain any analytical results even for an ideal gas.

Gas-liquid Relative Permeability Estimation in 2D Porous Media by Lattice Boltzmann Method: Low Viscosity Ratio 2D LBM Relative Permeability
This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...
متن کاملFluids in random porous media: Scaled particle theory*
The scaled particle theory (SPT) is applied to describe thermodynamic properties of a hard sphere (HS) fluid in random porous media. To this purpose, we extended the SPT2 approach, which has been developed previously. The analytical expressions for the chemical potential of an HS fluid in HS and overlapping hard sphere (OPH) matrices, sponge matrix, and hard convex body (HCB) matrix are obtaine...
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 ...
متن کاملAn experimental study on hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flow in coarse-grained porous media
The equations of fluids in porous media are very useful in designing the rockfill and diversion dams, gabions, breakwaters and ground water reserves. Researches have been showed that the Forchheimer equation is not sufficient for the analysis of hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flows; because, in these flows, in addition to the hydraulic gradient and velocity, the variable of radius is...

In this work the likelihood of asphaltene deposition problems during dynamic displacement of oil by natural gas in unconsolidated porous media is experimentally inspected. The two different rock materials, limestone and sandstone, are used as a representative of porous media. Dynamic flow experiments indicate that the increase of natural gas injection inc...
