An Improved Closed Loop Heat Extraction Method From Geothermal Resources
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Disposal of produced water and induced earthquakes are two major issues that have endangered development of the geothermal energy as a renewable source of energy. To avoid these problems, circulation of a lowboiling working ...
Simulating Multizone Fracturing in Vertical Wells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerous multizone multistage hydraulic fracturing treatments are now being executed in low permeability oil and gas fields around the world. Due to the limited access to the subsurface, posttreatment assessments are mainly ...
Modified Extended Finite Element Methods for Gas Flow in Fractured Reservoirs: A Pseudo-Pressure Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid flow in fractured porous media has always been important in different engineering applications especially in hydrology and reservoir engineering. However, by the onset of the hydraulic fracturing revolution, massive ...
A Reversible Miniaturized Tesla Valve
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tesla valves are passive fluid diodes originally proposed in 1920 by Nikola Tesla and consist of parallel tubes with bifurcated sections that rectify flow using fluid dynamics principles. Unlike conventional Tesla valves ...
