Characterizing the complicated flow behaviors arising from high water cut and low velocity oil-water flows is an important problem of significant challenge. We design a high-speed cycle motivation conductance sensor and carry out experiments for measuring the local flow information from different oil-in-water flow patterns. We first use multivariate time-frequency analysis to probe the typical ...

objective(s):investigation of phase diagram of various drug formulations is effective to predict different phase region of drugs to detect final formula. the purpose of this research was to develop the ternary phase diagrams for a drug microemulsion system consisting of cucurbita pepo (pumpkin) oil, surfactant (tween 80) and deionized water. materials and methods:an electrical conductivity was ...

A combination of electrical conductivity, dynamic viscosity, dynamic light scattering and small angle X-ray scattering methods was used to study the properties of the water + propylene glycol/mixed nonionic surfactants/ peppermint oil + ethanol U-type microemulsions which can be diluted with any amount of water. The surfactants were sucrose laurate and ethoxylated mono-di-glyceride. The mixing ...

The tomographic imaging of process parameters for oil-gas-water three-phase flow can be obtained through different sensing modalities, such as electrical resistance tomography (ERT) and electrical capacitance tomography (ECT), both of which are sensitive to specific properties of the objects to be imaged. However, it is hard to discriminate oil, gas and water phases merely from reconstructed im...

This paper addresses one of the major challenges in water-flooded oil reservoirs, which is early water breakthrough due to the presence of high permeable layers in the media. COMSOL Multiphysics is used to model two phase (water and oil) flow in dual-permeability porous medium at micro-scales. The heat transfer module is coupled with the laminar two-phase flow interface, because temperature aff...

Relations are found between grain boundary character distribution, misorientation distribution and two-point orientation distribution. Some of these relations are analogies for polycrystals of the Debye-Anderson-Brumberger formula and Berryman formula established for two-phase composites.
