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...

This Paper has studied the oil supply characteristics to scroll compressors for package air conditioners. Scroll compressor has four major lubricating parts: the lower journal bearing, the main journal bearing, the orbiting scroll journal bearing and the thrust bearing between the orbiting scroll and the main frame. It is very important to supply the required flow rate of oil in order to preven...

A suction line of a refrigeration cycle with vertical upward flow is one area where the refrigeration oil tends to accumulate. This paper discusses the flow characteristics of the oil film in a pipe with the vertical upward flow. Air and oil two-phase flow is used as the first step of the study and the flow pattern of the oil film in the vertical upward flow is observed. The oil film thickness ...

In this paper, the dynamic simulation for a high pressure regulator is performed to obtain the regulator behavior. To analyze the regulator performance, the equation of motion for inner parts, the continuity equation for diverse chambers and the equation for mass flow rate were derived. Because of nonlinearity and coupling, these equations are solved using numerical methods and the results are ...

an analytical study was performed to study effects of thermo-diffusion and chemical reactions on a three-dimensional mhd mixed convective flow of dissipative fluid along an infinite vertical porous plate with transverse sinusoidal suction velocity. the parabolic partial differential equations governing the fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer were solved using perturbation technique and...

the main objective of this study is the modelling and optimization of an industrial hydrocracker unit (hu) by means of adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) model. in this case, some data were collected from an industrial hydrocracker plant. inputs of an anfis include flow rate of fresh feed and recycle hydrogen, temperature of reactors, mole percentage of h2 and h2s, feed flow rate and...
