This study experimentally analyses the binding characteristics of analytes mixed in liquid samples flowing along a micro-channel to the receptor fixed on the wall of the micro-channel to provide design tools and data for a microfluidic-based biosensor. The binding or detection characteristics are analyzed experimentally by counting the number of analytes bound to the receptor, with sample analyte concentration, sample flow rate, and the position of the receptor along the micro-channel length as the main variables. A mathematical model is also proposed to predict the number of analytes transported and bound to the receptor based on a probability density function for Brownian motion. The coefficient in the mathematical model is obtained by using a dimensionless mathematical model and the experimental results. The coefficient remains valid for all different conditions of the sample analyte concentration, flow rate, and the position of the receptor, which implies the possibility of deriving a generalized model. Based on the mathematical model derived from mathematical and experimental analysis on the detection characteristics of the microfluidic-based biosensor depending on previously mentioned variables and the height of the micro-channel, this study suggests a design for a microfluidic-based biosensor by predicting the binding efficiency according to the channel height. The results show the binding efficiency increases as the flow rate decreases and as the receptor is placed closer to the sample-injecting inlet, but is unaffected by sample concentration.

Estimation of rate profile along the well is important information for reservoir characterisation since it allows distinction of the production rates from different layers. The temperature and pressure sensors in a well are small and inexpensive; while flow meters are cumbersome and expensive, and affect the flow in the well. The method presented in this peer-reviewed paper shows its significance in predicting the gas rate from temperature and pressure data. A mathematical model for pressure and temperature distributions along a gas well has been developed. Temperature and pressure profiles from nine well intervals in field A (Cooper Basin, Australia) have been matched with the mathematical model to determine the flow rates from different layers in the well. The presented model considers the variables as functions of thermal properties at each location, which is more accurate and robust than previous methods. The results of tuning the mathematical model to the field data show good agreement with the model prediction. Simple and robust explicit formulae are derived for the effective estimation of flow rate and thermal conductivity in gas wells. The proposed approach has been applied to determine the well gas rate and formation thermal conductivity from the acquired well pressure and temperature data in field A. It allows for recommending well stimulation of layers with low production rates.

The relevance of the research processes filtration consolidation due to the place of water-saturated soils in various design solutions related to the exploration, production and transportation of hydrocarbons. It should be noted that the diversity of soils led to the emergence of a wide range of mathematical models, obtained on the basis of generalization of experimental data and various assumptions to simplify engineering calculations. The article presents the results of theoretical and experimental studies of the mathematical model of the consolidation process of a water-saturated porous medium. This model is based on simplifying assumptions that are different from those adopted in well-known solutions. A fundamental approach to the formation of the model was developed on the basis of the kinetic representations of chemical reactions used in solving the environmental problems of epoxidation reactions of olefins. We determined the parameters of the mathematical model of the consolidation process of the saturated porous medium of clayey soil and confirmed its adequacy by the research results. In addition, we established the parameters of the field of non-equilibrium filtration, reducing the nonexistent ability of water-saturated soils.

The paper analyses the existing calculation methods for steam turbine condenser. The refined methods for calculating the condenser have also been considered. The dependency of the vapor pressure in the condenser on the temperature of the cooling water and the steam flow rate into the condenser have been considered. It can be seen from the obtained dependencies that the calculation of the condenser according to the ARTI and HEI (USA) methods coincides with the passport data. It is recommended to use the ARTI and HEI (USA) techniques for equipment diagnostics, and to use the KTP and USTU-UPI techniques when studying ways to increase the efficiency of the condenser. The mathematical model of the KG2-6200 condenser has been tested at the Almaty СHPP-2.

: An experimentally validated mathematical model of a microfluidic device with nozzle-shaped electrode configuration for realizing dielectrophoresis based 3D-focusing is presented in the article. Two right-triangle shaped electrodes on the top and bottom surfaces make up the nozzle-shaped electrode configuration. The mathematical model consists of equations describing the motion of microparticles as well as profiles of electric potential, electric field, and fluid flow inside the microchannel. The influence of forces associated with inertia, gravity, drag, virtual mass, dielectrophoresis, and buoyancy are taken into account in the model. The performance of the microfluidic device is quantified in terms of horizontal and vertical focusing parameters. The influence of operating parameters, such as applied electric potential and volumetric flow rate, as well as geometric parameters, such as electrode dimensions and microchannel dimensions, are analyzed using the model. The performance of the microfluidic device enhances with an increase in applied electric potential and reduction in volumetric flow rate. Additionally, the performance of the microfluidic device improves with reduction in microchannel height and increase in microparticle radius while degrading with increase in reduction in electrode length and width. The model is of great benefit as it allows for generating working designs of the proposed microfluidic device with the desired performance metrics.

Background and aim: A sea water intake, with original design of the six drum screen and twenty sea water pump intake with very different flow rate connected to header bay. The capacity of Origin Sea water intake including huge pump station and drum screen is 200,000 m3/hr. The purpose of the mathematical hydraulic model test of the sea water pumping station is to verify that the basin allows a good operating condition for each pump. To ensure a good operating condition for each pump, the design of the seawater basin has to insure: • A correct filter working; • Low transversal velocities; • A flow without vortex. Method and material: The mathematical model of the basin allows to know the flow and to verify: • The main dimensions of the pumping station; • The distance between the inlet ducts and the filters; • The distance between the filters and pump chambers. Result: in the first basin, the flow patterns no problems. Only swirl at the exit of culverts and near the free surface, and two areas where the flow has no velocity were observed. In the downstream other filters, we observe also a circulation that generates a tangential velocity. Conclusion: The mathematical model of the sea water pumping station has allowed calculating three cases (without and with filter stopped) for the low water level and nominal flow rate. In most difficult case, we observe some recirculation, mainly near the free surface, without more influence on principal flow. In the three cases, the distribution of the flow rate between the drum screens is uniform; the gap is inferior to 2%. At the entry of the pump chambers, the velocity fluctuations and the angle are low. Consequently, the secondary flows in pump chambers will be limited.

Air gap membrane distillation experiments of different temperature and mass flow rate of working fluid were done for the use of solar power and setting up the mathematical model of AGMD’ heat and mass transfer. The calculation correctness of mathematical model was discussed and the thermal efficiency of membrane distillation system was calculated. The results showed that the experimental flux of membrane distillation reached 49kg/m2•h and the biggest relative error is less than 9% between results of experiment and mathematical model calculation. The mathematical model can be used to forecast the process parameters of membrane distillation. The highest thermal efficiency of this system is 68% and the main influencing factors of thermal efficiency are temperature and mass flow rate of working fluid.

Considered the characteristics of porous medium in the coal seam and goaf, in order to reflect the accurately influence of various porous media against the gas flow, the mathematical model of discrete multi-scale network and macroscopic flow, CFCM (Coal-Fracture-Cavity-Model), was presented. The porous medium is classified into coal matrix, fracture and hole systems based on the size, and the coal matrix system includes micro fractures and micro-porous. The coal matrix system and fracture system can be regarded as diffusion and percolation areas; hole system can be regarded as a free-flowing area. The computation model of flow field in micro-scale, small-scale and large-scale are obtained according the Fick’s diffusion law, Darcy’s permeability law and Forchheimer generalized Darcy law respectively, the homogenization method is used to analyse the mathematical model by scale upgrading and the equivalent Darcy’s fluid equation of porous medium is got to describe the characteristics of the medium in the flow field accurately. An example calculated shows that the coal matrix and fracture systems are the most influential factors of the flow field in goaf and the two systems above would prevent the diffusion of airflow. The study validates the correctness of the classification method and the model of flow equation.

Spontaneous imbibition is the process in which the wetting phase is drawn into a porous medium by means of capillary force. Cocurrent and countercurrent spontaneous imbibitions are defined as wetting and non-wetting fluid flow in identical, and opposite directions respectively. The mathematical model is developed for cocurrent imbibition phenomenon in the inclined oil formatted homogeneous porous medium. An approximate analytical solution of the governing equation is derived by homotopy analysis method. The graphical and numerical solutions are discussed.
