core flooding experiments were conducted with the objective of evaluating near miscible surfactant alternating co2 injection and the effect of surfactant concentrations on gas-oil and water displacements in porous media. the core samples were provided from a low permeability mixed wet oil reservoir at 156 °f and 1900 psia. in addition, very few studies of surfactant adsorption on carbonate mine...

the objective of this research is to develop an accurate numerical method to be used in showing the deformation of a liquid fuel droplet in a convective field. to simultaneously solve the internal liquid droplet flow field as well as the external gas phase flow field, a nonstaggered rectangular grid system without any coordinate transformation is used. transition from the gas field to the liqui...

in the present work, the structural and electronic properties, and conductivity of (5,5) and (6,6) single walled carbon nanotubes in the ground state have done by using the hartree-fock and density functional theory dft-b3lyp/6-31g* level. delocalization of charge density between the bonding or lone pair and antibonding orbitals calculated by nbo (natural bond orbital) analysis. these methods a...

Pyrolysis of low density polyethylene (LDPE) by equilibrium fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) was studied in a stirred reactor under different process parameters. In this work, the effect of process parameters such as degradation temperature (420-510°C), catalyst/polymer ratio (0-60%), carrier gas type (H2, N2, ethylene, propylene, Ar and He), residence time and agitator speed (0-300 rpm) on the c...

In this work, studies of underground gas storage (UGS) were performed on a partially depleted, naturally fractured gas reservoir through compositional simulation. Reservoir dynamic model was calibrated by history matching of about 20 years of researvoir production. Effects of fracture parameters, i.e. fracture shape factor, fracture permeability and porosity were studied. Results show...

this study presents the electric behavior of sandwich devices based on porous silicon (ps) thin films with au/ps/si/cu structure when the material’s surface is exposed to different gases. ps thin films were fabricated by the electrochemical anodization method of si–c (100) substrates with resistivity 1.4-2.6 ωcm. samples were anodized in a solution of hf (48%), c2h5oh (99.98%) and distilled wat...

antioxidants are compounds which can prevent biological and chemical substances from oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species. flavonoids are the most important class of polyphenolic compounds that because of their antioxidant characters possess biological activities and pharmacological effects. chrysin-6-c-fucopyranoside and chrysin-3-malonyl-6-c-fucopyranoside are mono c-glycosyl derivativ...

gravity drainage is one of the important recovery mechanisms in fractured carbonate and conventional reservoirs. it occurs due to density difference between the gas in fracture and the oil in matrix as well as in conventional tilted reservoirs. oil phase will form films which are produced under gravity forces (film flow). many gas injection experiments have been done on laboratory scales with d...
