Hydraulic conductivity variations around the boreholes in uniformly graded sands for cyclic water injection pressure have been evaluated by laboratory tests. Prototype laboratory devices have been designed and constructed for this research. The cell has a capability to model the well, the boundary condition and to measure the hydraulic conductivity. While increasing water injection pressure, hy...

Based on statistical analysis on the situation of casing damage and water injection pressure in Pubei Oilfield, it shows that the main forms of casing damage in Pubei Oilfield are deformation and dislocation. Dip angle and faults have a significant impact on casing damage and casing damage is closely related to water injection pressure. Through laboratory simulating experiment and theoretical c...

This paper presents a theoretical model and a numerical simulation of a liquid-gas two-phase flow within a microchannel (50 500 2 m m cm μ μ × × ) equipped with distributed liquid water injection through the side walls. The modeling and solution of the conservation equations provide pressure drop as a function of inlet velocity. The influence of different parameters involving water injection is...

Preliminary human studies suggest the presence of an upper esophageal sphincter (UES) contractile reflex triggered by pharyngeal water stimulation. The purposes of this study were to further characterize this reflex and determine the threshold volume for its activation. We studied 10 healthy young volunteers by manometric technique before and after topical pharyngeal anesthesia. UES pressure re...

In oil industries, water injection into oil reservoirs for pressure maintenance, oil displacement, and oil recovery is a common technique. Formation damage during water injection is a major problem in this process. Formation damage from the incompatibility of formation water (FW) and injection water (IW) causes a reduction in the permeability around the injection wells. Therefore, it is necessa...

Few cases of high pressure water injection injuries of the foot have been reported. These cases suggest that only minimal soft tissue destruction results and that, with conservative or limited surgical management, full recovery should be expected. This is a report of two cases of this "benign variant" of high pressure water injection injury that resulted in toe amputations.

One of the mostly used enhanced oil recovery methods is the injection of water or gas under pressure to maintain or reverse the declining pressure in a reservoir. Several parameters should be optimized in a fluid injection process. The usual optimizing methods evaluate several scenarios to find the best solution. Since it is required to run the reservoir simulator hundreds of times, the process...

The plugging phenomenon near the well zone of oil injection will seriously affect water development field, and then exploitation resources. low permeability reservoir is affected by various factors. Due to large difference between layers serious interference layers, physical property layer relatively poor, pressure shows a trend increasing year year, which has great impact on As oilfield benefi...

Background and Aim: Water sorption is one of the most important properties that affects the quality of a prosthesis, and subsequently, the quality of treatment, and pa-tient’s quality of life. The aim of this study was to determine and compare the water sorption of two types of poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) using the injection-molding systems with a traditional acrylic resin base material. M...

In the most application of nozzle with gas-liquid two-phase flow, the quality of mixture in exhaust of nozzle is the most important parameter as well as the flow velocity. On the other hand, in some industrial application, such as water injection in forced induction (turbocharged or supercharged) internal combustion engine the spray quality is the main goal of designing. In this case and for im...
