  2. Relative permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permeability

    If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. absolute water permeability (i.e. =), we get an endpoint parameter for both oil and water relative permeability. If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. oil permeability with irreducible water saturation present, endpoint is one, and we are left with only the endpoint parameter. In order to satisfy both ...

  3. Reservoir simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_simulation

    Correlating relative permeability. The simulation model computes the saturation change of three phases (oil, water and gas) and the pressure of each phase in each cell at each time step. As a result of declining pressure as in a reservoir depletion study, gas will be liberated from the oil.

  4. Buckley–Leverett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckley–Leverett_equation

    In fluid dynamics, the Buckley–Leverett equation is a conservation equation used to model two-phase flow in porous media. [1] The Buckley–Leverett equation or the Buckley–Leverett displacement describes an immiscible displacement process, such as the displacement of oil by water, in a one-dimensional or quasi-one-dimensional reservoir.

  5. TEM-function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TEM-function

    Rocks with lower TEM versus saturation curves resemble low quality systems. [1] TEM-function in analyzing relative permeability data is analogous with Leverett J-function in analyzing capillary pressure data. Furthermore, TEM-function in two-phase flow systems is an extension of RQI (rock quality index) for single-phase systems. [1]

  6. Permeability (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(Materials...

    These terms refer to the quality that the permeability value in question is an intensive property of the medium, not a spatial average of a heterogeneous block of material equation 2.28 [clarification needed] [further explanation needed]; and that it is a function of the material structure only (and not of the fluid).

  7. Lipid bilayer phase behavior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid_bilayer_phase_behavior

    In colloidal chemistry, one property of a lipid bilayer is the relative mobility (fluidity) of the individual lipid molecules and how this mobility changes with temperature. This response is known as the phase behavior of the bilayer. Broadly, at a given temperature a lipid bilayer can exist in either a liquid or a solid phase.

  8. Pore structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pore_structure

    The intrinsic permeability is the attribute primarily influenced by the pore structure, and the fundamental physical factors governing fluid flow and distribution are the grain surface-to-volume ratio and grain shape. [6] The idea that the pore space is made up of a network of channels through which fluid can flow is particularly helpful. Pore ...

  9. Constitutive equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutive_equation

    The first constitutive equation (constitutive law) was developed by Robert Hooke and is known as Hooke's law.It deals with the case of linear elastic materials.Following this discovery, this type of equation, often called a "stress-strain relation" in this example, but also called a "constitutive assumption" or an "equation of state" was commonly used.
