基于多尺度量纲统一原则的油藏孔隙分形输运特性研究

油藏孔隙分布具有分形特征,如何将分形描述方法应用到油藏多孔介质内流体的输运特性研究过程中,目前的研究方法存在一定局限,主要是没有考虑量纲统一原则和尺度效应等。本文基于量纲统一原则,利用分形描述方法,对油藏多孔介质内输运过程渗透率和渗流流量进行了推导,得到了输运特性参数的单位尺度转换系数,据此可以实现基于微观分形特征描述来分析宏观输运过程。本文建立的分形输运描述方程能够实现不同尺度层级间的转换,得到的宏观特性参数结果更接近实测值。基于本文所建模型,利用某油藏数据进行了分析验证,得到了输运流量及渗透率变化规律与实际油藏的分布规律吻合。

各向异性渗流条件下弹性波的传播特征

研究了弹性波在非均匀裂纹孔隙介质中的传播特性,建立了各向异性喷射流模型.当弹性波通过裂纹孔隙介质时,由于波的扰动及裂纹和孔隙几何结构的不一致,导致在裂纹内部及裂纹与周边孔隙之间同时存在着流体压力梯度.此时的弹性波波动响应中包含着裂纹内连通性特征和背景孔隙渗透率信息.流体的动态流动过程使得介质的等效弹性参数为复数(非完全弹性),并且具有频率依赖性.当弹性波为低频和高频极限时,介质为完全弹性;当处于中间频段时,波有衰减和频率依赖.裂纹孔隙介质的各向异性连通性(渗透率)对应着各向异性特征频率(当渗流长度等于非均匀尺度时的弹性波频率),波的传播受到裂纹内连通性的影响.在一定频段内,随着裂纹厚度的增加,将出现第二峰值,峰值大小同时受到裂纹厚度和半径的影响.

An analysis of the radial flow in the heterogeneous porous media based on fractal and constructal tree networks

In this paper, an analysis of the radial flow in the heterogeneous porous media based on fractal and constructal tree networks is presented. A dual-domain model is applied to simulate the heterogeneous porous media embedded with a constructal tree network based on the fractal distribution of pore space and tortuosity nature of flow paths. The analytical expressions for seepage velocity, pressure drop, local and global permeability of the network and binary system are derived, and the transport properties for the optimal branching structure are discussed. Notable is that the global permeability (K_n) of the network and the volume fraction (f_n) occupied by the network exhibit linear scaling law with the fractal dimension (D_p) of channel diameter bylogK_n∼0.46D_p and logf_n∼1.03D_p, respectively. Our analytical results are in good agreement with the available numerical results for steady-state soil vapor extraction and indicate that the fractal dimension for pore space has significant effect on the permeable properties of the media. The proposed dual-domain model may capture the characteristics of heterogeneous porous media and help understanding the transport mechanisms of the radial flow in the media.     

A Particle Resistance Model for Flow through Porous Media

A particle model for resistance of flow in isotropic porous media is developed based on the fractal geometry theory and on the drag force flowing around sphere. The proposed model is expressed as a function of porosity, fluid property, particle size, fluid velocity （or Reynolds number） and fractal characters D f of particles in porous media. The model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental data. The validity of the proposed model is thus verified.     

Effect of melting heat transfer and thermal radiation on Casson fluid flow in porous medium over moving surface with magnetohydrodynamics

In this study, the effects of variable fluid properties on heat transfer in MHD Casson fluid melts over a moving surface in a porous medium in the presence of the radiation are examined. The relevant similarity transformations are used to reduce the governing equations into a system of highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations and those are then solved numerically using the Runge–Kutta–Fehlbergmethod. The effects of different controlling parameters, namely, the Casson parameter,melting and radiation parameters, Prandtl number,magnetic field, porosity, viscosity and the thermal conductivity parameters on flow and heat transfer are investigated. The numerical results for the dimensionless velocity and temperature as well as friction factor and reducedNusselt number are presented graphically and discussed. It is found that the rate of heat transfer increases as the Casson parameter increases.

A difference-fractal model for the permeability of fibrous porous media

In this Letter, a difference-fractal model for the permeability of viscous flow through fibrous porous media is proposed. Since fractal objects have well-defined geometric properties, and are discrete and discontinuous, we apply the difference approach to developing the fractal model. The model of non-dimensional permeability is expressed as a function of porosity and fractal dimension. To verify the validity of the proposed model, the predicted permeability values are compared with those of experimental measurements. A good agreement between the prediction of the fractal model and the existing experimental data from the literature is found.     

Validity of the permeability Carman-Kozeny equation: A volume averaging approach

A volume averaging approach is used to estimate the porous media permeability. Contrary to traditional methods that rely on solving the Navier-Stokes equations for laminar flow, this approach has the advantage that it does not require the specification of some physical conditions and parameters (pressure drop and viscosity). Numerical results on synthetic models of porous media showed that (i) the local porous medium configuration has an important effect on the permeability value, and (ii) the Carman-Kozeny equation cannot describe the permeability behavior as a function of porosity and characteristic lengths. In turn, our results indicate that simple empirical equations, commonly used in practice, are unable to describe the permeability functionalities over a broad range of porous media configurations.
