Application of the computer simulation for solving the incompressible flow problems motivates developing efficient and accurate numerical models. The set of Inviscid Incompressible Euler equations can be applied for wide range of engineering applications. For the steady state problems, the equation of continuity can be simultaneously solved with the equations of motion in a coupled manner using...

The compressibility factor (Z-factor) of natural gases is necessary in many gas reservoir engineering calculations. Accurate determination of this parameter is of crucial need and challenges a large number of used simulators in petroleum engineering. Although numerous studies for prediction of gas compressibility factor have been reported in the literature, the accurate prediction of this param...

Abstract The Lax-Wendroff scheme is extended to incompressible fluid flow problems within the framework of artificial compressibility method (ACM) utilizing a “cell-centered finite-volume” Δ-approximation on non-orthogonal non-staggered grid. An ACM induces transformation between conservative and primitive variables; physical relevance bring about “matrix preconditionings”, provoking density pe...

Ultrasonic velocities in solution of tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) in 10, 20 and 30 %w/w N, N– dimethylformamide (DMF)-water mixtures were measured at 303 K, 308 K and 313 K by using the pulse echo overlap method at a frequency of 3 MHz. The ultrasonic velocity, density, and viscosity were used to calculate the adiabatic compressibility, apparent molal compressibility, apparent molal volume...

The coefficient of isothermal compressibility (oil compressibility) is defined as the fractional change of oil volume per unit change in pressure. Though the oil compressibility so defined frequently appears in the partial-differential equations describing fluid flow in porous media, it is rarely used in this form in practical engineering calculations. Instead, oil compressibility is usually as...

In this study buckling analysis of solid rectangular plate made of porous material in undrained condition is investigated. The mechanical properties of plate are assumed to vary through the thickness direction. Distributing of the pores through the plate thickness are assumed to be the nonlinear nonsymmetric, nonlinear symmetric, and monotonous distribution. The effect of pores and pores distri...
