Equations of state should be tuned to reservoir conditions by PVT tests for phase behavior modeling. This tuning is achievable via an optimization method. In this work, simulated annealing algorithm is applied as a global optimization method to parameter optimization for PC-SAFT from the statistical associating fluid theory incorporating hard chain as reference fluid. The optimization parameter...

in this paper, time-domain dynamic analysis of dam - infinite reservoir is studied. a numerical method, discrete singular convolution (dsc), which seems to be efficient and simple, has been used to model the mixed boundary conditions. after a brief introduction, dsc is applied to model the equation of motion of fluid-structure with constant cross section subjected to el-centro (1940) earthquake...

CO2-based Engineered Geothermal Systems (EGS) have been explored from the perspectives of thermodynamic performance, in-reservoir chemical reactivity, and economic viability. Previous works have correctly noted the important role that initial water content in the geothermal reservoir will play in determining the viability of the concept, but have not examined reservoir water content from a quan...

constructing phase diagram and its subsequent quality lines for lean gas condensate reservoirs is always crucial and challenging topic in reservoir fluid studies. due to small amounts of liquid drop-outs in lean gas condensates at reservoir conditions, full experimental tracking of phase diagram and its relevant quality lines is almost impossible for lean gas condensates.on the other hand, eos ...

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...
