351 Dynamical behaviour

Reservoir simulation is a technique in which a computer-based mathematical representation of the reservoir is constructed and then used to predict its dynamic behaviour. The reservoir is gridded up into a number of grid blocks. The reservoir rock properties (porosity, saturation, and permeability), and the fluid properties (viscosity and the PVT properties) are specified for each grid block. 

Introduction and Commercial Application Section 8.0 considered the dynamic behaviour in the reservoir, away from the influence of the wells. However, when the fluid flow comes under the influence of the pressure drop near the wellbore, the displacement may be altered by the local pressure distribution, giving rise to coning or cusping. These effects may encourage the production of unwanted fluids (e.g. water or gas instead of oil), and must be understood so that their negative input can be minimised. 

The linear dependence of C witii temperahire agrees well with experiment, but the pre-factor can differ by a factor of two or more from the free electron value. The origin of the difference is thought to arise from several factors the electrons are not tndy free, they interact with each other and with the crystal lattice, and the dynamical behaviour the electrons interacting witii the lattice results in an effective mass which differs from the free electron mass. For example, as the electron moves tlirough tiie lattice, the lattice can distort and exert a dragging force.

Of great interest to physical chemists and chemical physicists are the broadening mechanisms of Raman lines in the condensed phase. Characterization of tliese mechanisms provides infomiation about the microscopic dynamical behaviour of material. The line broadening is due to the interaction between the Raman active chromophore and its environment.

Analytic teclmiques often use a time-dependent generalization of Landau-Ginzburg ffee-energy fiinctionals. The different universal dynamic behaviours have been classified by Hohenberg and Halperin [94]. In the simple example of a binary fluid (model B) the concentration difference can be used as an order parameter m.. A gradient in the local chemical potential p(r) = 8F/ m(r) gives rise to a current j...

If the dynamic behaviour of a physical system can be represented by an equation, or a set of equations, this is referred to as the mathematical model of the system. Such models can be constructed from knowledge of the physical characteristics of the system, i.e. mass for a mechanical system or resistance for an electrical system. Alternatively, a mathematical model may be determined by experimentation, by measuring how the system output responds to known inputs. 

Mathematical models that represent the dynamic behaviour of physical systems are constructed using differential equations. A more accurate representation of the motor vehicle would be...

Sodium octanoate (NaO) forms reversed micelles not only in hydrocarbons but also in 1-hexanol/water. The hydration of the ionogenic NaO headgroups plays an important role in this case too. For this reason Fujii et al. 64) studied the dynamic behaviour of these headgroups and the influence of hydration-water with l3C and 23Na NMR measurements. Below w0 = [H20]/[NaO] 6 the 23Na line-width...

Following the first preliminary comparison, a next step could be to find a set of parameters, that give the best or optimal fit to the experimental data. This can be done by a manual, trial-and-error procedure or by using a more sophisticated mathematical technique which is aimed at finding those values for the system parameters that minimise the difference between values given by the model and those obtained by experiment. Such techniques are general, but are illustrated here with special reference to the dynamic behaviour of chemical reactors.
