Abstract An innovative method is introduced to improve oil recovery techniques by combining Artificial Neural Networks with Proportional‐Integral‐Derivative control systems. Acknowledging the significant progress in artificial intelligence, study primarily focuses on employing model steam injection of alumina nanoparticles into a 2D porous medium, simulating injection‐enhanced Recovery scenarios. The data from numerical simulations and Levenberg‐Marquardt backpropagation algorithm are used...
Abstract We report two-dimensional simulations of drop dynamics on a substrate subject to wetting gradient and an external pressure along the substrate. A phase-field formulation is used represent interface, moving contact line modelled by Cahn–Hilliard diffusion. The Navier–Stokes–Cahn–Hilliard equations are solved finite elements adaptively refined unstructured grid. For single pair drops, we consider three scenarios motion driven only, flow combination two. Both capillary force...
The extent of condensate flooding as a function flow rate is measured on six horizontal pin-fin tubes (varying in circumferential pin-spacing) via simulated experimentation. Surface tension to density ratio tested using three fluids namely water, ethylene glycol and R-141b. Results show that was strongly effected by changing the rate. An increase caused marginal decrease angle (an extracted from top test tube fully flooded flank). Similarly, pin-spacing also retention effect goes increasing...
Abstract Effects of nanoparticle and steam injection on the extraction Iranian American Petroleum Institute (API) 14 heavy oil from a model porous medium at temperatures 110, 150, 200 °C were investigated. Nanoparticle content was 1 %, 3 5 flow rates 0.018, 0.036 0.072 mL h −1 . In short‐term injection, increasing temperature to rate resulted in highest recovery. mid‐term recovery factor 150 , while results long‐term predicted non‐monotonic effect rate. The alumina is less than that...
While there are intensive studies on the coalescence of sessile macroscale droplets, is little study microdroplets. In this paper, process two microdroplets studied by using a many-body dissipative particle dynamics numerical method. A comprehensive parametric conducted to investigate effects from wettability gradient, hydrophilicity solid surface, and symmetric or asymmetric configurations. water bridge formed after contact. The temporal evolution characterized bridge's radii parallel...
Abstract Environmental factors such as climate change, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical forces hinder long‐term space, transportation, research missions due to structural damage. We report an innovative system overcome this problem. The self‐healing structure under examination is epoxy a polymeric matrix, which includes microcapsules embedded with epoxy‐polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), healing agent, separately combined by triethylenetetramine (TETA) hardener or curing agent. Scanning...
In current study, the efficiency of a lab-scale MBBR was studied using K3 Kaldnes carriers.COD containing contaminant 1000 to 3500mg/l used examine system performance by measuring BOD and COD at different HRTs, temperature inlet CODs.It should be noted that carriers not in previous studies.To determine optimal HRT, effluent were examined HRTs 3, 5, 8, 12 hours.The optimum HRT 8 hours with removal more than 80%.Despite HRT=12 highest ~86%, HRT=8 chosen as due time-consuming refinement process...
