Fall 2012
Sand-laden jets can be found in many engineering applications, such as, marine bed capping, mining operations, hydro-transport, dredging material disposal, and discharge of industrial and domestic wastewater. Understanding the dynamic interactions of the sand particles and its ambient are...

Multi-phase jet in crossflow (MJC) garnered significant attention across a range of applications, including artificial aeration in oceans, lakes, and rivers. As of yet, the vast majority of the MJC literature focuses on pure gas or solid injection into crossflow, and limited studies pay attention...

Experimental and Numerical Study into the Performance Assessment of Stand-alone Screens in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage Operations
DownloadFall 2021
Sand production is a significant issue for weakly consolidated and unconsolidated formations. Sanding can erode the wellbore and surface facilities and plug the wellbore. In SAGD operations, wellbores are typically completed by stand-alone screens such as slotted liners (SL), wire-wrapped screens...

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of the Hydraulics of Storm water Drill Drop Manholes and Vertical Drains with Radial Inflow
DownloadFall 2016
Vertical drains have been always an important topic in hydraulic engineering because of their application in draining from large reservoirs such as in shaft spillways of dams. In these structures, a radial water flow is supplied to the vertical shaft. Nowadays, vertical drains have been mostly...

Experimental and Theoretical Investigations of Particle Removal from Sand Bed Deposits in Horizontal Wells Using Turbulent Flow of Water and Polymer Fluids
DownloadFall 2017
Turbulent flow of water and polymer fluids over the sand bed deposits in horizontal annuli was studied using a large-scale flow loop equipped with particle image velocimetry (PIV) tool. Tests have been conducted to investigate the effects of near wall turbulence, fluid rheological characteristics...

Experimental Determination of Minimum Miscibility Pressure Between CO2-CH4 Mixtures and Crude Oil
DownloadFall 2019
Impure gas flooding can be used as an effective method for enhancing oil recovery. The minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) is a key parameter in the design of impure gas injection. It is thus of great importance to accurately determine the MMP for the impure gas injection process. This study...

Experimental Investigation of Gravel-Pack Sizing Performance in Open-Hole Gravel-Pack (OHGP) Applications
DownloadSpring 2021
Bitencourt Zimmermann, José Henrique
This thesis presents a setup for open-hole gravel-pack testing and introduces the experimental results to assess Saucier's (1974) gravel sizing design criteria for gravel-pack applications. A Sand Retention Testing (SRT) was modified to simulate the open-hole gravel-pack (OHGP) scenario....

Fall 2009
It is known that discrete ice floes approaching an ice cover from upstream will either contribute to the lengthening of the ice cover, or will become entrained in the flow. Knowledge of the hydrodynamic forces acting on individual ice floes is an important component of any model attempting to...
