چکیده مقاله:

An improved model of mud dispersion has been introduced in this work. The advantages of this model consist of a new analytical correlation for dispersivity by using resistivity log data and using a new aspect of capacitance dispersion model. Mathematical formulations were expressed, solved by numerical model taking advantage of actual log and formation data. Achieved results yielded reasonable values and trends which can be used to predict the drilling fluid concentration near wellbore region and interpret the well log data. In comparison with the previous models (Civan and Engler, 1994; Donaldson and Chernoglazov, 1987), this model uses more reasonable data and assumptions making it closer to real conditions.

Stabilizing fluid–fluid displacements in porous media through wettability alteration

We study experimentally how wettability impacts fluid–fluid displacement patterns in granular media. We inject a low-viscosity fluid (air) into a thin bed of glass beads initially saturated with a more-viscous fluid (a water/glycerol mixture). Chemical treatment of glass surfaces allows us to control the wetting properties of the medium and modify the contact angle θ from 5 deg (drainage) to 12...

Evolving Cellular Automata to Model Fluid Flow in Porous Media

Fluid flow in porous media is a dynamic process that is traditionally modeled using PDE (Partial Differential Equations). In this approach, physical properties related to fluid flow are inferred from rock sample data. However, due to the limitations posed in the sample data (sparseness and noise), this method often yields inaccurate results. Consequently, production information is normally used...

Experimental Investigation of the Permeability and Inertial Effect on Fluid Flow through Homogeneous Porous Media

The value of the permeability in fluid flow through porous media is important for process investigation. In low Reynolds number, the classic Darcy’s law is suitable for simulation of fluid flow. In this paper, an experimental study for evaluation of preformed fiber permeability has been done. Also, the deviations from the classical Darcy law by experimental and numerical simulation of the N...

Dispersion in Heterogeneous Porous Media: One-Equation Non-equilibrium Model

Abstract. In this paper, the method of large-scale averaging is used to develop two different oneequation models describing dispersion in heterogeneous porous media. The first model represents the case of large-scale mass equilibrium, while the second represents the asymptotic behavior of a twoequation model obtained by large-scale averaging. It is shown that a one-equation, non-equilibrium mod...

An improved spectrophotometric method to study the transport, attachment, and breakthrough of bacteria through porous media.

This study reports an improved spectrophotometric method for studying bacterial (Pseudomonas fluorescens UPER-1) transport and attachment in saturated porous media (silica sand). While studying the effect of ionic strength by the traditional packed-column spectrophotometric method, we encountered an artifact. The absorbance of a well-stirred bacterial suspension was found to decrease with time ...
