Severe MIC case in an elbow. On the other hand, bacteria can be used in the reservoirs to enhance production in a technology known as microbiologically enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). In that technology, bacteria are added to the petroleum reservoirs to produce acids, gases, and biosurfactants ...
As the arm build proceeds we see that there are no electronic controls to be found. Control is through hydraulic cylinders in a master-slave setup; the slave opens a pneumatic valve attached to the elbow of the arm, which moves the lower arm until the valve closes and brings the forelimb...
Finally, vertical compression and subsequent buildup of contact spots result in a drastic drop in permeability. The most compressed 0.5−0.5 and 1−0.75 models both show a viscous k0 less or equal to the non-sheared 0−0.3895 and 0−0.3 models; however, abundant contact spots strongly...
Depending on the fracture geometry, bottlenecks closing with shear become a major negative factor for the overall permeability. Highlights We build a realistic 2D rough-walled fracture model from 3D scan data, implementing both shear and roughness variations. We perform CFD simulations of laminar and...
In one memorable week in 1999, it was our washing machine, my computer, and my five-year-old’s right elbow. 8 Jim Kerr 1 year ago Reply to Hugh Hunkeler When it rains, it pours … 🙁 10 Carol O 1 year ago Reply to Jim Kerr No, it leaks… 5 Rick Connor 1 year ago...
The first of this type is called the eccentric orifice plate, where the hole is located off-center to allow the undesired portions of the fluid to pass through the orifice rather than build up on the upstream face: For gas flows, the hole should be offset downward, so any liquid droplets...
Durable build, high performance, and long range. The fluid VISTA electric scooter is the perfect choice for urban transport. Fast acceleration and top speed of over 30 mph!
The conduits 14a and 14b provide for fluid communication between the vessels 3a-3e and the first discs 16 and 28, and can be arranged as elbowed pipes as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, or can be arranged as any other means for transporting fluid, as is known in the art. Also, the ...
What kind of damage can excess snow and ice buildup cause to your car and do you still need to scrape off the ice and snow on your car and let it run for a couple minutes even on days you’re not driving? Always try to clear all ice and snow from the windshield before you leave...
Having a flow splitter or an elbow, or a bend or flange in the fluid path exacerbates wear caused by abrasive fluids because the abrasive particles in the fluid tend to scrape the outside of a curved path due to centrifugal forces. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1A is an ...
