the biqian-10 block, located in henan oilfield of sinopic, contains many thin and interbedded reservoirs, which have been operated by cyclic steam stimulation for 20 years or more. therefore, it is a challenge to implement the conventional steam flooding. in order to improve the recovery of steam flooding, urea was used to assist steam flooding. urea can decompose into co2 and nh3, which are be...

This work presents the hydrogen production from steam gasification of palm kernel shell (PKS) at 700 C in the presence of 5% Ni/BEA and 5% Fe/BEA as catalysts. The steam gasification was performed in two-staged reactors to evaluate the effect of calcinations temperature and the steam to biomass ratio on the product gas composition. The catalytic activity of Ni/BEA catalyst decreases with increa...

Abstract Steam-water capillary pressure is often either ignored or determined artificially in geothermal reservoir engineering. However steam-water capillary pressure plays an important role in geothermal reservoir performance and may not be substituted by air-water capillary pressure. To this end, preliminary mathematical models have been developed to calculate drainage and imbibition steam-wa...

A superheater is an essential part of the steam generation process in the boiler-turbine system. Reliable control of temperature in the superheated steam temperature system is necessary to guarantee efficiency and high load-following capability in the operation of coal-fired Thermal power plant. The PI and PID controllers are extensively used in cascade control of secondary superheated steam te...

the composition of the essential oils of teucrium chamaedrys l. belongs to the family lamiaceae, it is growing wild in the margin of mountainous roads of arid and cold climate of north iran. in this research, essential oils of t. chamaedrys, extracted and measured at the different location by different methods of distillationand then were analyzed by gc and gc/ms. investigation and comparison o...

With the increase in thermal power capacity, ultra supercritical units have become the mainstream of power industry. At the same time, with the improvement of the steam parameters and the lengthening of shafting, the production of steam flow excited vibration is frequent in the ultra supercritical units, which may seriously affect the reliability of the unit. This paper has taken steam flow exc...

The economic feasibility of resource recovery projects depends largely on the amount of revenue that can be obtained from the recovered energy products. The revenue that can be obtained from steam is dependent on the type of steam market available. The type of steam market in turn affects the design of the resource recovery facility and its capital cost. This paper discusses how the proposed st...

Background: The shortage of skilled workers choosing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) careers in the USA and worldwide has fueled a movement towards STEAM, in which the “A” addresses the arts and humanities. STEAM education has been proposed as a way to offer relevant problems to solve while drawing on creative and collaborative skills to increase interest and engagement in the...
