Experimental Investigation of Near-well Fluid Mechanics on the Scaling Mechanism in Narrow Rectangular Slots
DownloadSpring 2020
This experimental study investigates the effect of near-well fluid mechanics on the scaling failure mechanism specific to SAGD production well. The scaling failure mechanism can be triggered by the pressure drop phenomenon and causes the plugging of the slots in the oilfields. The scale formation...

Fall 2021
The primary motivation of this research is to investigate the conditions and parameters that influence the formation, stabilization, destruction and reformation of the multi-particle sand arching (bridging) that occurs at the opening of the sand filters to support sand retention. In particular,...
