Effects of heterogeneities on capillary pressure-saturation-relative permeability relationships.
In theories of multiphase flow through porous media, capillary pressure-saturation and relative permeability-saturation curves are assumed to be intrinsic properties of the medium. Moreover, relative permeability is assumed to be a scalar property. However, numerous theoretical and experimental works have shown that these basic assumptions may not be valid. For example, relative permeability is...
متن کاملCapillary pressure-saturation relations in porous media including the effect of wettability
In this work a functional relationship between capillary pressure and wetting phase saturation has been developed. Both the imbibition and drainage of a wetting phase liquid into a porous medium consisting of clean unconsolidated silica particles have been considered. In all, two bead packings, with average particle diameters of 120 #m and 360 #In, and three liquids--water, ethanol, and refrige...
متن کاملFractional wettability effects on two-and three-fluid capillary pressure-saturation relations
Studies of the relation between capillary pressure (Pc) and fluid saturation (S) for porous media containing oi l -water or a i r -o i l -water , often assume that the medium is strongly water-wet. Natural porous media, however, are composed of a variety of mineral constituents; such media are typically composed of waterand oil-wet fractions. This study reports on twoand three-fluid Pc-S data f...
متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Determining Capillary Pressure and Relative Permeability Curves from Spontaneous Imbibition Data
In this paper, a very efficient method, called single matrix block analyzer (SMBA), has been developed to determine relative permeability and capillary pressure curves from spontaneous imbibition (SI) data. SMBA mimics realistically the SI tests by appropriate boundary conditions modeling. In the proposed method, a cuboid with an identical core plug height is considered. The equal dimensions of...
متن کاملCalculation of Steam-water Relative Permeability Using Capillary Pressure Data
Various capillary pressure approaches such as the Purcell, Burdine, Corey, and Brooks-Corey methods were used to calculate steam-water relative permeabilities using the measured data of steamwater capillary pressure in both drainage and imbibition processes. The calculated results were compared to the experimental data of steam-water relative permeability measured in Berea sandstone. The steam-...
