Objective:The rheological properties of oil severely affect the determination of percolation theory, development program, production technology and oil-gathering and transferring process, especially for super heavy oil reservoirs. This paper illustrated the basic seepage morphology of super heavy oil in micro pores based on its rheological characteristics.Methods:The non-linear flow law and start-up pressure gradient of super heavy oil under irreducible water saturation at different temperatures were performed with different permeable sand packs. Meanwhile, the empirical formulas between start-up pressure gradient, the parameters describing the velocity-pressure drop curve and the ratio of gas permeability of a core to fluid viscosity were established.Results:The results demonstrate that temperature and core permeability have significant effect on the non-linear flow characteristics of super heavy oil. The relationship between start-up pressure gradient of oil, the parameters representing the velocity-pressure drop curve and the ratio of core permeability to fluid viscosity could be described as a power function.Conclusion:Above all, the quantitative description of the seepage law of super heavy oil reservoir was proposed in this paper, and finally the empirical diagram for determining the minimum and maximum start-up pressure of heavy oil with different viscosity in different permeable formations was obtained.

Shear stress at the cilia wall is considered as an imperative factor that affects the efficiency of cilia beatings as it describes the momentum transfer between the fluid and the cilia. We consider a visco-inelastic Prandtl fluid in a ciliated channel under electro-osmotic pumping and the slippage effect at cilia surface. Cilia beating is responsible for the stimulation of the flow in the channel. Evenly distributed cilia tend to move in a coordinated rhythm to mobilize propulsive metachronal waves along the channel surface by achieving elliptic trajectory movements in the flow direction. After using lubrication approximations, the governing equations are solved by the perturbation method. The pressure rise per metachronal wavelength is obtained by numerically integrating the expression. The effects of the physical parameters of interest on various flow quantities, such as velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, stream function, and shear stress at the ciliated wall, are discussed through graphs. The analysis reveals that the axial velocity is enhanced by escalating the Helmholtz–Smoluchowski velocity and the electro-osmosis effects near the elastic wall. The shear stress at the ciliated boundary elevates with an increase in the cilia length and the eccentricity of the cilia structure.

AbstractIn this paper, the solution to a coupled flow problem for a micropolar medium undergoing structural changes is presented. The structural changes occur because of a grinding of the medium in a funnel-shaped crusher. The standard macroscopic equations for mass and linear momentum are solved in combination with a balance equation for the microinertia tensor containing a production term. The constitutive equations of the medium describe a linear viscous material with a viscosity coefficient depending on the characteristic particle moment of inertia, the so-called microinertia. A coupled system of equations is presented and solved numerically in order to determine the distribution of the fields for velocity, pressure, viscosity coefficient, and microinertia in all points of the continuum. The numerical solution to this problem is found by using the implicit finite difference method and the upwind scheme.

In this paper the seat vibration acceleration response was reduced through flow passage modification of the centrifugal pump which could decrease the fluid excitation of the pump. CFD simulation technology was applied to optimize the fluid field of the multi-stage centrifugal pump, and then the velocity, pressure fluctuation and fluid excitation were concerned to investigate the effect of optimization. Finally, the influence of fluid field modification on the seat vibration response was verified experimentally.

In order to clarify the compressibility effect, the perturbed flow field of the supercavitating hydrofoil in subsonic region is examined by a linearized technique and, as a result, the general corresponding rule of the compressible flow to the incompressible one is proposed to obtain the characteristics of the supercavitating hydrofoil. The main contents are summarized as follows: (i) Basic relations between velocity, pressure, and sound speed are shown in subsonic liquid flow within the framework of linearization. (ii) The correspondence of the steady, characteristics of the two and three dimensional supercavitating hydrofoils in subsonic liquid flow to ones in incompressible flow is clarified. Hence we can readily calculate the characteristics by simple correction to ones in incompressible flow. (iii) Numerical calculations are made to show the essential differences of the compressibility effect between liquid and gas flow, and also the interrelated effect between cavitation number and Mach number on the characteristics of the supercavitating hydrofoils.
