Positive coupling effect in gas condensate reservoirs is assessed through a pure theoretical approach. A combination of linear stability analysis and long bubble approximation is applied to describe gas condensate coupled flow and relative permeability, thereof. The role of capillary number in gas condensate flow is clearly expressed through closed formula for relative permeability. While the m...

the paper discusses the results of 30 years of radon indoor entry research. while some progress has been made, many discrepancies between current theories and experimental data still remain. misconceptions of radon transport mechanisms in homes are analyzed. the role of us environmental protection agency in radon indoor entry research is examined and the agency's policies are criticized. t...

in this research, the bioinsising impact of two wood decay fungi (pysisporinus vitreus and xylaria longipes) on radial air permeability and moisture diffusion coefficient of spruce wood (picea abies) was investigated. fungal cultivation was performed in an incubator at 25 °c and 85% relative humidity for 15, 30 and 45 days. results showed that the permeability, moisture diffusion and mass loss ...

estrogen replacement therapy (ert) in postmenopausal women may decrease the risk of coronary artery diseases (cad). we hypothesized that nitric oxide (no) releasing due to ert may be the essential factor by which endothelial permeability decreases. four groups of ovariectomized rabbits were under investigation for five weeks. groups 1 & 4 received high cholesterol diet and other two groups (2 &...

The present paper investigates the influence of stabilization with cement, peat ash, and silica sand on permeability coefficient (kv) of compacted clay, using a novel approach to stabilize the clay with peat ash as a supplementary material of cement in the compacted and stabilized soil. In order to assess the mentioned influence, test specimens of both untreated and stabilized soil have been te...

The prediction of porosity is achieved by using available core and log data; however, the estimation of permeability is limited to the scare core data. Hence, porosity and saturation data through the framework of flow units can be used to make an estimation of reservoir permeability. The purpose of this study is to predict the permeability of a carbonate gas reservoir by using physical-based em...

This paper addressed the application of new hydrophobic synthesized calcium oxide (CaO) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanofluids to low permeability carbonate porous media. Crude oil and plugs were selected from one of oil reservoirs in the west of Iran. The main goal of this paper is comparing the results of improving water-oil relative permeability parameters in low permeability plugs...
