The directional logging-while-drilling measurements enable to monitor the distance to formation boundaries and their orientation and facilitate proactive well placement, and thus can provide directionality information useful in detecting physical parameters such as bed boundaries, formation dip and formation azimuth, so the oil and gas recovery can be greatly improved. The characteristics of a kind of electromagnetic wave resistivity logging while drilling (LWD) tool with tilted antennas are computed via the magnetic-current-source dyadic Green’s function for horizontally stratified anisotropic media. The current characteristic at the formation interface of the tilted antennas is compared with that of the axial antenna, and how the LWD tool with tilted antennas to detect the formation interface position and orientation is revealed. The amplitude-attenuation and phase-shift characteristics of LWD tool with tilted antennas are analyzed, and how to design the angle of tilted antenna is presented. The relationship between the emitting frequency and emitting-receiving antenna space parameters is expounded, and the emitting-receiving antenna space parameter suitable for different frequencies is presented. The detection characteristic of the electromagnetic wave measuring instrument is studied. For the highly deviated well formation model, the directional response characteristics of the different relative dip angle isotropic and anisotropic formation are numerically simulated and analyzed. The directional response characteristics of the two kinds of coil arrangement (unilateral arrangement and symmetrical arrangement) are analyzed by numerical simulation, and the solution to reduce or eliminate the influence of the directional response of the isotropy on the directional response is obtained. The conclusions obtained by theoretical analysis and numerical simulation provide a guide for the instrument principle research and application.

The phase diagram of the magnetorheological suspension allowing for the modulated phases in the Hele-Shaw cell under the action of the normal field is calculated. The phase boundaries between the stripe, the hexagonal and the unmodulated phases in dependence on the layer thickness and the magnetic field strength are found. The existence of the transitions between the stripe and the hexagonal phases at the corresponding variation of the physical parameters is illustrated by the numerical simulation of the concentration dynamics in the Hele-Shaw cell. It is remarked that those transitions in the case of the magnetorheological suspensions can be caused by the compression or the expansion of the layer. Among the features noticed at the numerical simulation of the concentration dynamics in the Hele-Shaw cell are: the stripe patterns formed from the preexisting hexagonal structures are more ordered than arising from the initial randomly perturbed state; at the slightly perturbed boundary between the concentrated and diluted phases the hexagonal and the inverted hexagonal phases are formed and others.

A calculation method for counter-current type coil-wound heat exchanger is presented for heat exchange process. The numerical simulation method is applied to determine the basic physical parameters of wound bundles. By controlling the inlet fluid velocity varying in coil-wound heat exchanger to program and calculate the iterative process. The calculation data is analyzed by comparison of numerical result and the unit three dimensional pipe bundle model was built. Studies show that the introduction of numerical simulation can simplify the pipe winding process and accelerate the calculation and design of overall configuration in coil-wound heat exchanger. This method can be applied to the physical modeling and heat transfer calculation of pipe bundles in coil wound heat exchanger, program to calculate the complex heat transfer changing with velocity and other parameters, and optimize the overall design and calculation of spiral bundles.

This work presents a mathematical algorithm for modeling the propagation of poroelastic waves. We have shown how the classical Biot equations can be put into Ursin’s form in a plane-layered 3D porous medium. Using this form, we have derived explicit for- mulas that can be used as the basis of an efficient computational algorithm. To validate the algorithm, numerical simulations were performed using both the poroelastic and equivalent elastic models. The results obtained confirmed the proposed algorithm’s reliability, identify- ing the main wave events in both low-frequency and high-frequency regimes in the reservoir and laboratory scales, respectively. We have also illustrated the influence of some physical parameters on the attenuation and dispersion of the slow wave.

In this work, we study the diffusion of particle accelerated in an electromagnetic wave packet, through a numerical simulation of the relativistic standard map. We contribute to the field of stochastic diffusion of accelerated particles as a function of the stochastic parameter K, specially the transition between partial and global stochasticity, and we also compare our theoretical computation of the diffusion with numerical results.

Azimuthal electromagnetic wave logging-while-drilling (LWD) technology can detect weak electromagnetic wave signal and realize real-time resistivity imaging. It has great values to reduce drilling cost and increase drilling rate. In this paper, self-adaptive hp finite element method (FEM) has been used to study the azimuthal resistivity LWD responses in different conditions. Numerical simulation results show that amplitude attenuation and phase shift of directional electromagnetic wave signals are closely related to induced magnetic field and azimuthal angle. The peak value and polarity of geological guidance signals can be used to distinguish reservoir interface and achieve real-time geosteering drilling. Numerical simulation results also show the accuracy of the self-adaptive hp FEM and provide physical interpretation of peak value and polarity of the geological guidance signals.

To investigate the transient electromagnetic method of response characteristics in the tunnel geological prediction, the finite element numerical simulation of unfavorable geological body of different location, different resistivity sizes, different shapes, and different volume size were carried out by ANSYS finite element software. The results show that secondary electromagnetic field of different location of unfavorable geological body have same decay rate, when detection distance from 30m to 70m, transient electromagnetic responses are strongest, followed distance from 10m to 30m and from 70m to 90m. The shape, volume and resistivity of unfavorable geological body have strong influence on transient electromagnetic response, unfavorable geological body more sleek, the greater the volume and the smaller the resistivity of unfavorable geological body, the secondary electromagnetic field decay slower.
