Numerical simulation of fractured vertical well in low-permeable oil reservoir with proppant distribution in hydraulic fracture
TL;DR: In this paper, Liu et al. presented a physical definition of effective fracture length (EFL) to evaluate the fracture effectiveness due to uneven proppant distribution, which is negative for low-permeable oil reservoir development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of machine learning to viscoplastic flow modeling
TL;DR: This work presents a method based on proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to find a low-dimensional approximation to the velocity and artificial neural network to approximate the coefficients of a given solution in the constructed POD basis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid velocity based simulation of hydraulic fracture—a penny shaped model. Part II: new, accurate semi-analytical benchmarks for an impermeable solid
TL;DR: In this paper simple, accurate, semi-analytical approximations of the solution are provided for the zero leak-off case, for a wide range of values of the material toughness and parameters defining the fluid rheology.

Power ultrasound assisted coalbed methane enhancement recovery: Field application and performance evaluation in underground coal mine
TL;DR: In this paper , the in-situ antireflection test was conducted with high power ultrasound ∼18 kW in underground coal seam, and the performance was evaluated by measuring the borehole drainage gas data in the field test zone.

Effect of roughness on fluid flow and solute transport in a single fracture: A review of recent developments, current trends, and future research
Jungin Lee,Tayfun Babadagli +1 more
TL;DR: The roughness effect on fracture flow has been extensively studied in the past 70 years as discussed by the authors, and a review of the recent developments in the area of roughness effects on various types of flow and transport such as single-phase flow, multi-phase fluid flow, and solid transport.

Journal ArticleDOI
The lift on a small sphere in a slow shear flow
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a sphere moving through a very viscous liquid with velocity V relative to a uniform simple shear, the translation velocity being parallel to the streamlines and measured relative to streamline through the centre, experiences a lift force 81·2μVa2k½/v½ + smaller terms perpendicular to the flow direction, which acts to deflect the particle towards the streamline moving in the direction opposite to V.

The Penetration of a Fluid into a Porous Medium or Hele-Shaw Cell Containing a More Viscous Liquid
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a flow is possible in which equally spaced fingers advance steadily at very slow speeds, such that behind the tips of the advancing fingers the widths of the two columns of fluid are equal.
