The objective of this experimental study is to investigate the impact of physical and chemical mud contaminations on cement-formation shear bond strength for sandstone and shale formations. Physical contamination occurs when drilling fluids (mud) dehydrates on the surface of the formation, while chemical contamination on the other hand occurs when the drilling fluid (still in the liquid state) is mixed with cement slurry and reacts chemically with the cement during a cementing job. We investigated the impact of the contamination on the shear bond strength and the changes in the mineralogy of the cement at the cement-formation interface to quantify …

5th International Conference on Porous Media and Their Applications in Science, Engineering and Industry
We present a mathematical model for targeting a drug at malignant tissue cells in a permeable microvessel. The drug molecules are transported in carrier particles which are assumed to be porous spheres. This mode of drug delivery is non-invasive and has less toxic effects on healthy cells and tissues. The microvessel tube (see Figure 1) is subdivided into three regions, the outer endothelial glycocalyx layer where the blood has a Newtonian character, and a core and plug regions where the blood flow is described using a non-Newtonian Casson fluid model which is suitable for microvessels of radius 5mμ. Targeting is …

Previous studies have shown that stacked multi-layer mini-channels heat sinks with square or circular channels have advantages over traditional single layered channels in terms of both pressure drop and thermal resistance. In this work, porous media is used in the multi-layered stacked mini-channels instead of square or rectangular channels and the effect of the same on pressure drop and thermal perfor- mance is studied. Porosity scaling is done between the lay- ers of porous media and is compared with unscaled stacked multilayer channel. Porosity scaling allows the porosity to vary from one layer to the next layer and could result …

5th International Conference on Porous Media and Their Applications in Science, Engineering and Industry
Pressure pulse decay method is widely used for permeability tests for low permeability rock plug samples. This method can be used for crushed grain samples by removing the downstream chamber in standard pulse decay tests. Processes in pulse decay tests for low permeability crushed shale are investigated using numerical simulation. Both the Klinkenberg slip effect for gas flows in low permeability rock and the gas absorption/desorption in the porous matrix are considered. The complete mathematical model is set up to include the two effects. Deviation of the numerical pulse decay curve from the analytical one with an assumption that the …

Fluid Flows Through Unsaturated Porous Media: An Alternative Simulation Procedure, Maria Laura Martins-Costa, Joao Carlos Castro Dias, Rogerio M. Saldanha Da Gama
5th International Conference on Porous Media and Their Applications in Science, Engineering and Industry
This article studies fluid flows through an unsaturated porous matrix, modeled under a mixture theory viewpoint, which give rise to nonlinear hyperbolic systems. An alternative procedure is employed to simulate these nonlinear nonhomogeneous hyperbolic systems of two partial differential equations representing mass and momentum conservation for the fluid (liquid) constituent of mixture. An operator splitting technique is employed so that the nonhomogeneous system is split into a time-dependent ordinary portion and a homogeneous one. This latter is simulated by employing Glimm’s scheme and an approximate Riemann solver is used for marching between two consecutive time steps. This Riemann solver conveniently …

The current study employs CFD to study the forced air cooling of a pyramid shaped porous foam absorber. Herein, a three by three (3×3) array of porous foam absorbers heated with an external heat flux is modeled using the differential equations governing heat and fluid flow through porous media based on the Brinkman-Darcy flow equations and an effective thermal conductivity to account for the porous medium. The numerical simulations are carried out using the COMSOL commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Finite Element based software package. The primary finding of our study is that the more porous the foam absorber media …

A three-dimensional fluid-saturated porous medium model for natural convective flow has been developed, taking into account inertial and viscous forces within the fluid. The model consists of a cube with a top surface partially exposed to a steady, uniform convective heat flux and the entire domain to uniform internal heat generation. The differential equations for the Brinkman-extended Darcy model were formulated and non-dimensionalized, with numerical solutions obtained using the Galerkin finite element method. The results have been validated by comparison with previously published reports. It has been observed that the applied boundary conditions result in a central toroidal vortex driven …

Nanoparticles-assembled bi-porous structure is newly proposed and its potential to enhance the boiling heat transfer is evaluated in order to develop a new cooling device toward 300W/cm2 of on-vehicle inverter cooling. In order to assemble nanoparticles on to a heat transfer surface as a thin layer, a boiling adhesion method (BAM) is originally introduced in which, water or water/ethanol solution with mono-dispersed nanoparticles is dropped or sprayed onto a high temperature surface, and then the nanoparticles deposit onto the heat transfer surface during the boiling. In addition to that, it is expected that boiling bubbles can produce micro or milli …

In present study, high time-resolution flow field measurement in a sphere-packed pipe (SPP) is performed by the digital-holographic particle-tracking velocimetry. The visualization technique is carried out by a refractive index-matching method using a sodium iodide (NaI) solution employed as a working fluid. Hologram fringe images of particles behind the spheres can be observed, and the particles’ positions can be reconstructed by a digital hologram. Consequently, 3-D velocity-fields around the spheres are obtained by the reconstructed particles’ positions. In addition, numerical simulation of a sphere-packed pipe flow with Immersed Boundary technique is carried out to compare with the experimental value. In …

We investigate the velocity distribution function of the fluid flow through a model of random porous media. We examine how the form of the distribution changes with porosity. We find a crossover porosity at which the scaling character of the distribution changes and discuss our findings in the context of a nearly exponential velocity distribution function measured recently experimentally [Datta, S.S. et al. (2013) Phys. Rev. Lett. 111: 064501].

The aim of present study is to develop a practicable accelerated experimental method to obtain desorption isotherm of concrete more quickly and more reliably. A large number of sliced samples with thickness of 1, 2 and 3 mm have been de-saturated from fully water-saturated state to dry state. Time needed to obtain a mass stabilization varies from 14 to 30 days for concrete CEM I at a given relative humidity. Time saving is remarkable especially at lower relative humidity. Thinner samples lose their masses more quickly in the first week, but the thickness has hardly any influence on the total …

5th International Conference on Porous Media and Their Applications in Science, Engineering and Industry
In the framework of HYDRA, an European funded program, technological solutions of hybrid Thermal Protection System (TPS) are developed. This advanced shielding relies on the hybridization of upper lightweight porous ablative material and inner Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) bonded together with a novel high temperature adhesive. The aerial mass optimization of the full TPS requires a controlled reduction in the ablative material thickness to reach high operating temperature configuration of the CMC. Therefore, radiative heat transfer takes place in a thin layer of ablator and becomes a major contributor to the elevation of the interface temperature. In this paper we …

Two types of process monitoring techniques are compared and discussed in this presentation. The first one is in-situ curvature monitoring, by which it was possible to evaluate the stress evolution during plasma spraying and separately identify the sources of stresses, i.e., the quenching stress and thermal stress as shown in Fig.1 (a). By changing the spraying parameters, it was possible to prepare specimens at largely different deposition temperatures, which resulted in significantly different levels of residual stresses. Also, it was found that the mechanical properties of the obtained YSZ coatings such as the elastic modulus are strongly dependent on the …
