The paper presents results of modeling of periodical regime of oil well for the purpose of monitoring and optimization of its operation. To describe non-stationary flow in the reservoir a planar-radial model of filtration is employed. The flow of multiphase flux in the well elements (casing, tubing, annulus) is described by 1D Navier-Stoks equations. The pump work is modelled by specification of its rate-head curve. To estimate the typical time duration of the processes in the well and in the reservoir a solution of a model problem for cylindrical tube is given. Through the examples a solution of a problem of optimization of periodical regime of oil wells is demonstrated. The comparison with field measurements is presented.

In this paper, the development of the conceptual and groundwater flow model for the coastal aquifer system of the alluvial plain of River Nestos (N. Greece), that suffers from seawater intrusion due to over-pumping for irrigation, is analyzed. The study area is a typical semi-arid hydrogeologic environment, composed of a multi-layer granular aquifers that covers the eastern coastal delta system of R. Nestos. This study demonstrates the results of a series of field measurements (such as geophysical surveys, hydrochemical and isotopical measurements, hydro-meteorological data, land use, irrigation schemes) that were conducted during the period 2009 to 2014. The synthesis of the above resulted in the development of the conceptual model for this aquifer system, that formed the basis for the application of the mathematical model for simulating groundwater flow. The mathematical modeling was achieved using the finite difference method after the application of the USGS code MODFLOW-2005.

Numerical experiment has been successfully used during recent 10-15 years to solve a wide range of thermal and hydrogasodynamic tasks. Application of mathematical modeling used to design the ventilation systems for production premises characterized by heat emission may be considered to be an effective method to obtain reasonable solutions. Results of calculation performed with numerical solution of ventilation tasks depend on turbulence model selection. Currently a large number of different turbulence models used to calculate turbulent flows are known. Testing and definition of applicability limits for semiempirical models of turbulence should be considered to be a preliminary stage of calculation. This article presents results of test calculations pertaining to thermal air process modeling in premises characterized by presence of heat emission sources performed with employment of different models of turbulence. Besides, analysis of calculation results and comparison with field measurements data are presented.

The paper presents the results of the mathematical modeling of a supersonic twin jet interaction with an obstacle for the Mach number of 4.5 specified at the nozzle exit. Mathematical formulation of the problem includes a system of Favre-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and SST turbulence model for a viscous compressible ideal gas. The calculations are carried out using the free software OpenFOAM Extended with the Godunov method employed. The effect of the distance between nozzles on the shock-wave structure of the gas flow and on the force action of the plumes on the obstacle is studied. The distance between the nozzles varied in the range of 0.1−4. It is found that with an increase in the distance from 0.1 to 0.5, the flow structure is significantly rearranged, and two pressure maxima arise, which increase in comparison to the distance of 0.2. A decrease in pressure on the obstacle is observed at the distance over 1.0. For a distance of 4, two pressure maxima occur on the axis of each jet, while the force action of each jet is half as high as the resultant jet force action for a distance of 0.1. The transition from a stationary regime to a self-oscillating one is observed when the distance exceeds the value of 1.5.

The paper presents the results of mathematical modeling of the process of launching and output to the mode of an oil well, which was uploaded by a well-killing liquid at the stage of repairs. After the launching of the electric submergible pump the drop of the bottomhole pressure occurs and the inflow of reservoir fluid begins. As a result the multicomponent mixture is generated inside the well, which consists of oil, associated water, well-killing liquid and free gas, originated from the oil during degassing, and this mixture is pumped out towards wellhead. As soon as the pump characteristics are changed, when the liquid with variable density is pumped out, it is necessary to control the speed of a shaft of the pump for providing the stable pump regime. This problem is solved in the paper for different ratios of densities of well-killing liquid and reservoir fluid by the mathematical modeling of multiphase flow in the well elements and inside the pump. As a mathematical model the one-dimensional quasi-stationary model in approach of drift for description of relative motion of the components is applied, which proved itself well for modeling of non-stationary processes lasting for several days. The comparison of calculated and measuring field parameters is presented. It is shown that the speed of washout of the well-killing liquid from the oil well and the probability of the pump stop due to its head failure depend on the ration of densities of the well-killing liquid and reservoir fluid. It is stated that the monitoring of change of parameters of the pump in time through the mathematical modeling can help to optimize the output to the mode of the well. This allows to avoid stops due to the pump head failure and to diminish the electricity costs.

We study flow of substance in a channel of network which consists of nodes of network and edges which connect these nodes and form ways for motion of substance. The channel can have arbitrary number of arms and each arm can contain arbitrary number of nodes. The flow of substance is modeled by a system of ordinary differential equations. We discuss first a model for a channel which arms contain infinite number of nodes each. For stationary regime of motion of substance in such a channel we obtain probability distributions connected to distribution of substance in any of channel’s arms and in entire channel. Obtained distributions are not discussed by other authors and can be connected to Waring distribution. Next, we discuss a model for flow of substance in a channel which arms contain finite number of nodes each. We obtain probability distributions connected to distribution of substance in the nodes of the channel for stationary regime of flow of substance. These distributions are also new and we calculate corresponding information measure and Shannon information measure for studied kind of flow of substance.

In this paper we study the stationary flow of viscous-plastic fluid in the horizontal cylindrical tube (Svedov Bingham's flow) with the assumption of existence of the viscous adherent sub layer near the wall. The obtained results are estimated and compared with those of Svedov - Bingham flow. We also inspect the "near the wall effect" which was showed in the work of Smoldurev & Xaponov and have some notes and estimation about it.
