Modelling of screw compressors using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) offers better insight into the working chamber of twin screw machines when compared with chamber models. As shown by authors in earlier publications, CFD models predict performance of dry gas and refrigeration compressors fairly accurately. However numerical flow models used for modelling of oil flooded twin screw compresso...

Geological conditions along long distance pipelines are complex. In consideration of differences in elevation and terrain obstacles, long distance pipelines are commonly laid through tunnels. Oil and gas pipelines are often laid side by side to reduce construction costs and minimize geological impact. The layout and construction of parallel oil and gas pipelines are more complex than those of s...

Simultaneous reaction and separation in ex-situ catalytic pyrolysis of biomass was proposed to increase product yield reduce carbon residue short residence time. A novel cyclone reactor designed implement this process. The low cyclonic flow the upper part can efficiently gas (biomass vapors)-solid (catalysts) two-phase contact efficiency, further enhance effect. strong generated under action gu...

Together with generalized self-similarity and the fractal spectrum, local singularity analysis has been introduced as one part of the new 3S principle and technique for mineral resource assessment based on multifractal modeling, which has been demonstrated to be useful for anomaly delineation. Local singularity is used in this paper to characterize the property of multifractal distribution patt...

Future exploitation scheme of an oil reservoir in each cycle within its production life depends on the profitability of the current extraction scenario compared with predicted recoveries that acquire with applying other available methods. In fractured reservoirs appropriate time to pass from the gas injection process into chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) firmly depends on the oil extraction...

How Do R&D Programs Funded by the DG XII (Science, Research and Development Directorate) of the European Commission Impact the Upstream Oil and Gas Industry in Europe? — This paper provides an overview of the direct and indirect impact which DG XII funding for research and development has on the oil and gas exploration and production industry in Europe. Despite the relatively low level of fundi...

A computer model for prediction and analysis of an oil-flooded single screw compressor performance is developed. The model includes suction preheat, pressuri ~~.tion of the gas in the control volume during the suction closure process, flowage of gas and oil mixture through discharge port, leakage of gas and oil. It considers the effect of oil-injection rate, clearances and length of leaka~e pat...

The volatile oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the petals of Rosa damascena Mill. (Rosaceae) was analyzed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The yield of the oil was 0.12 % (v/w). Fifty compounds representing 99.06 % of the oil were characterized. The volatile oil was found rich in sesquiterpenes and aliphatic components, consisting of two monoterpenic es...
