Rankin, Robert, Watt, Clare E. J.
We investigate parallel electron acceleration due to inertial Alfven wave pulses in the presence of Lorentzian ( kappa) distribution functions which possess high-energy tails. A linear kinetic dispersion relation for inertial Alfven waves is derived whose solutions are used to guide the analysis...

Improved Quantification of Viscoelastic Effects during Polymer Flooding Using Extensional Rheology
DownloadSpring 2019
Polymer flooding is one of the traditional chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods with a high rate of success. Synthetic polymer such as hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) characterized by flexible chain exhibits viscoelastic characteristics in porous media. Some of the implications of the...

Experimental Investigation of Viscoelastic Cavitating and Turbulent Channel Flows Subjected to Different Pressure Gradients
DownloadSpring 2023
Steam-assisted gravity drainage is a common method for oil production in Alberta, Canada. Production wells are equipped with inflow control devices to improve production efficiency. These devices utilize nozzle-type constrictions to enhance oil production by hindering water and gas breakthroughs....
