Production of gases from gas-condensate reservoirs are known to bear certain challenges largely due to the formation of retrograde condensates that hinder gas flow. The drop out of this liquid creates flow regions that are characterized by the liquid saturation as it affects the mobility of the two phase flow, thereby preventing the effective modeling of well productivity. In this study, a pred...

A mixture of liquid and gas bubbles of the same size may be considered as an example of a classic nonlinear medium. In practice, analysis of propagation of the pressure waves in a liquid with gas bubbles is important problem. We know that there are solitary and periodic waves in a mixture of a liquid and gas bubbles and these waves can be described by nonlinear partial differential equations. A...

A temporal stability analysis was carried out for a planar liquid sheet sandwiched between two gas streams moving with unequal velocities. Perturbation analysis was carried out up to second order using the initial amplitude of disturbance of the liquid sheet as the perturbation parameter. Both para-sinuous and para-varicose modes were investigated to determine the dominant break-up mechanism. T...

There are a variety of approaches to removing gaseous pollutants from effluent streams: absorption, adsorption, condensation, chemical reaction, incineration, and selective diffusion through a membrane. Absorption is an operation involving mass transfer of a soluble vapor component to a solvent liquid in a device that promotes intimate contact between the gas and the liquid. The driving force f...

Identification of routine mycobacterial isolates by gas-liquid chromatography profile analysis was performed on 335 strains received at the Mayo Clinic over a 10-month period. Comparison of identification by gas-liquid chromatography versus conventional biochemical profiles was made. The two methods agreed on the identification of 320 isolates, with gas-liquid chromatography profiling making ei...

Absorption of CO2 from a gas mixture containing CO2 and nitrogen by water-based CNT nanofluids in gas–liquid hollow fiber membrane contactor was modeled and solved using COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4. The model assumed partial wetting of the membrane, along with diffusion in the axial and radial directions. In addition, Brownian motion and grazing effects were both considered in the model. The main c...

Abstract. In this work we deal with the no-slip drift-flux model for gas-liquid flow dynamics. We focus on a situation where there is a free interface separating the gas-liquid mixture from a pure gas region which takes a positive pressure p∗. This situation is highly relevant for gas-liquid flow in the context of wellbore operations. Previous works have assumed that there is vacuum, i.e., the ...

The super-saturation condition has to be provided to form gas hydrates. Consequently, the prediction of the guest molecule fraction in the aqueous phase is crucial in the study of the gas hydrate kinetics. In the present work, several experiments were carried out in a semi-batch reactor in order to determine the mole fraction of methane and ethane during gas hydrates formation (growth stage...
