In this paper, we illustrate that the modern trends for viscosity prediction are moving away from empirically based methods to those that make use of a sound theoretical framework and are validated against primary experimental data. The Vesovic-Wakeham (VW) method is in the forefront of these developments. It is founded on the kinetic theory of hard-sphere fluids that is appropriately modified ...

in this paper, a model based on gmdh type neural network, is used to predict gas price in the spot market while using oil spot market price, gas spot market price, gas future market price, oil future market price and average temperature of the weather. the results suggest that gmdh neural network model, according to the root mean squared error (rmse) and direction statistics (dstat) statistics ...

the density and viscosity of carbonated aqueous 35wt% methyldiethanolamine solution were experimentally measured accompanied with the solubility of co2 at temperatures from (303.15 to 363.15) k and pressures up to 0.8 mpa using the new setup developed in our laboratory.it was observed that both density and viscosity of mixtures decrease by increasing temperature and increase by increasing acid ...

NMR well logging of petroleum reservoir require the measurement of the NMR response of water, oil, and gas in the pore space of rocks at elevated temperatures and pressures. The viscosity of the oil may range from less than 1 cp to greater than 10,000 cp. Also, the oil and gas are not a single component but rather a broad distribution of components. The log mean T1 and T2 relaxation time of dea...

We evaluate the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density in a pion gas employing the UehlingUehlenbeck equation and experimental phase-shifts parameterized by means of the SU(2) Inverse Amplitude Method. We find that the ratio for this monocomponent gas stays well above the KSS 1/(4π) bound. We find similar results with other sets of phase shifts and conclude the bound is nowhere violated. P...

the performance of a forced-liquid vertical tubular loop bioreactor (vtlb), a forced-liquid horizontal tubular loop bioreactor (htlb) and a gas-induced external airlift loop bioreactor (ealb) were compared for production of biomass from natural gas. hydrodynamic characteristics and mass transfer coefficients were determined as functions of design parameters, physical properties of gases as well...

In this work we propose an effective viscosity criterion for the stabilization of annular gas-liquid and liquid-particle flows and an inertial mechanism which drives waves into slugs in slugging gas-liquid flows. Annular flow is stable when the fluid having the higher effective viscosity occupies the core region and the lower viscosity fluid is the annulus. The eddy viscosity criterion is shown...
