Viscosity profile prediction of a heavy crude oil during lifting in two deep artesian wells

It has been known that the productivity of artesian wells is strongly dependent on the rheological properties of crude oils.This work targets two deep artesian wells (＞5000 m) that are producing heavy crude oil.The impacts of well conditions including temperature,pressure and shear rate,on the crude oil rheology were comprehensively investigated and correlated using several empirical rheological models.The experimental data indicate that this heavy oil is very sensitive to temperature as result of microstructure change caused by hydrogen bonding.The rheological behavior of the heavy oil is also significantly impacted by the imposed pressure,i.e.,the viscosity flow activation energy (Eμ) gently increases with the increasing pressure.The viscosity-shear rate data are well fitted to the power law model at low temperature.However,due to the transition of fluid feature at high temperature (Newtonian fluid),the measured viscosity was found to slightly deviate from the fitting data.Combining the evaluated correlations,the viscosity profile of the heavy crude oil in these two deep artesian wells as a function of well depth was predicted using the oilfield producing data.     

剪切速率和温度对低水胶比水泥浆流变性能的影响

水泥浆体的流变性能不仅与材料本身有关,还受环境及外部作用影响。本文针对水泥基材料实际工程中存在的主要外部影响因素,即剪切作用与环境温度,研究了两者对低水胶比水泥浆流变性能的耦合作用。结果表明:水泥浆体在剪切过程中的流变行为与所施加的预剪切有关,水泥浆体的屈服应力随预剪切速率的增大而减小,剪切增稠的程度随预剪切速率的增大而增大;温度升高,水泥颗粒对减水剂的吸附量增加,浆体在不同剪切速率下的平衡表观黏度减小;温度和剪切速率对水泥浆平衡表观黏度的影响具有耦合效应,剪切速率越高,温度的影响越小,反之亦然,并建立了不同温度和剪切速率下平衡表观黏度的数学关系。     

玻璃微球填充聚丙烯的流变行为

为了阐明聚丙烯(PP)/玻璃微球(GM)体系的流变性质特点,采用不同含量的GM对PP进行填充改性,通过双辊混炼法制备了PP/GM体系,利用流变仪测试了PP/GM体系的流变行为,采用管长判别法进行毛细管入口修正,讨论了GM含量、剪切应力、温度等参数对PP/GM体系流变行为的影响,分析探索各参数对熔体表观黏度的影响规律。结果表明,采用管长判别法进行入口修正可大幅减少实验工作量,且合适的毛细管长径比是保证管长判别法精度的关键。PP/GM体系属非牛顿假塑性熔体,可用幂律公式表达;随GM含量增加,PP/GM体系黏度增加、非牛顿性减弱。温度越低,黏度随GM含量增加而升高的速率越高;剪切应力越大,黏度随温度升高而下降的速率越低。基于正交多项式的回归分析方法,从实验数据推导表观黏度与GM含量、剪切应力、温度之间的函数关系式,其表观黏度对数计算值与实测值非常接近,能较准确地反映实际流变行为,指导PP/GM体系的实际加工生产应用。     

A Survey of Rheological Properties of One-Component Epoxy Adhesives

Flow characteristics of seven commercially available one-component epoxy adhesive pastes were measured using a controlled shear stress rheometer and a controlled shear rate rheometer over a temperature range from 5°C to 60°C. Combining data obtained from both controlled rate and controlled stress experiments over a wide range of shear rates, we observed Newtonian flow (shear stress proportional to shear rate) at very low shear rates, a plateau “shear thinning” region at intermediate shear rates, and a second region of linear dependence of shear stress on shear rate at high shear rates. The adhesive pastes exhibited a very broad range of rheological behavior. Two flow parameters important to adhesive application technology, the plastic viscosity and the apparent yield stress, were measured for each adhesive. The plastic viscosity ranged from 11.6 to 329.5 Pa. s; the apparent yield stress ranged from 56.2 to 413 Pa. The temperature dependence of the rheological parameters of the epoxy adhesive pastes was also determined. The results are reported as the activation energies, E_η and E_σ, of plastic viscosity and apparent yield stress, respectively. The apparent yield stress of each adhesive paste was much less sensitive to changes in temperature than was the plastic viscosity. This suggests that the processing characteristics are likely to show qualitative as well as quantitative changes with temperature.     

Viscosity and rheological behavior of castor–canola mixture

In this work, the effects of shear rate on viscosity of selected pure food grade oils (castor and canola) are investigated. The rheological behavior of castor–canola oil mixture is also studied through modeling the experimental data. The effect of shear rate on the variation of viscosity was clearly observed. Interpretations of the results from rheological models indicate that these food grade oils belong to pseudo‐plastic category. The results also show that among the six used mixing rules, Grunberg–Nissan model seems very well fitted to the experimental data.     

PVC通信电缆绝缘料流变行为的研究

本文采用毛细管流变仪对聚氯乙烯电缆料的加工流变性能进行了研究，分析并讨论了影响ＰＶＣ流变性能的各种因素。结果表明：在试验温度下，增塑ＰＶＣ的剪切应力均随剪切速率的增加而增大，但当剪切速率增加到一定程度后，剪切速率对剪切应力的影响变小；改性剂ＰＭ－１的加入可以大大降低在相同剪切速率下的剪切应力。改性剂ＰＭ－１使电缆料的剪切敏感性减小，牛顿性增强。虽然ＰＭ－１不能改变临界剪切应力值，但却使当临界剪切应力相应的熔体粘度减小，即临界剪切速率增大，这在实际生产过程中是十分有用的，即可以提高挤出速度而不致于产生熔体破裂。分子量减小，熔体表观粘度明显减小。熔体表观粘度随温度的升高而逐渐减小。

Melt rheology and morphology of LLDPE/EVA blends: Effect of blend ratio,compatibilization, and dynamic crosslinking

The melt rheological properties of linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE)/ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) blends were investigated with special reference to the effect of blend ratio, temperature, shear rate, compatibilization, and dynamic vulcanization. The melt viscosity of the blends determined with a capillary rheometer is found to decrease with an increase of shear rate, which is an indication of pseudoplastic behavior. The viscosity of the blend was found to be a nonadditive function of the viscosities of the component polymers. A negative deviation was observed because of the interlayer slip between the polar EVA and the nonpolar LLDPE phases. The melt viscosity of these blends decreases with the increased concentration of EVA. The morphology of the extrudate of the blends at different shear rates and blend ratios was studied and the size and distribution of the domains were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The morphology was found to depend on shear rate and blend ratio. Compatibilization of the blends with phenolic‐ and maleic‐modified LLDPE increased the melt viscosity at lower wt % of compatibilizer and then leveled off. Dynamic vulcanization is found to increase the melt viscosity at a lower concentration of DCP. The effect of temperature on melt viscosity of the blends was also studied. Finally, attempts were made to correlate the experimental data on melt viscosity and cocontinuity region with different theoretical models. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The flow of non-Newtonian solutions through packed beds

The rheological behavior of aqueous solutions of Separan AP-30®, polymethylcellulose, and polyvinylpyrrolidone was studied experimentally. These solutions exhibit non-Newtonian flow behavior in simple shear, and are characterized by one of several 2, 3, or 4 parameter rheological equations. The equations used included the power law, the Ellis model, Spriggs equation, the Herschel-Bulkley equation, and Meter's model. The power law model fits the data for each of the solutions over a limited range of shear rates, whereas the other models, which include either a lower shear rate limiting Newtonian viscosity, and/or an upper shear rate limiting Newtonian viscosity, or a yield stress, fit the data well over a wide range of shear rates from 0.00675 to 1076 sec^?1. The pressure drop-flow rate data for the same aqueous solutions flowing through packed beds were correlated well by the Ergun equation using the various rheological models applied in this work to evaluate a modified fluid viscosity. In each case it was found that the rheological model which best fit the viscometric data also gave the best packed bed friction factor correlation, and that no one model, such as the powerlaw, or the Ellis model, is the best one to use in all cases for all solutions. For polyvinylpyrrolidone solutions large deviations between experimental values of friction factor and those from the Ergun equation occurred for modified Reynolds numbers greater than one. A pseudo viscoelastic parameter was used to improve the friction factor correlation empirically at high Reynolds numbers.

Phase inversion and viscoelastic properties of phase-separated polymer blends

Summary The morphologies and viscoelastic properties of the phase-separated poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride)/poly(methyl methacrylate) bends have been investigated using TEM and rotational rheometry. Various rheological criteria based on the viscoelastic properties of the blends have been used to evaluate the phase inversion. By correlating the rheological results to data from morphological analysis by TEM, it is found that the maximum of the storage modulus and the viscosity at low shear rate are most suitable for determining the phase-inversion composition of the present phase-separated polymer blends. While the data from the maximum of the shear viscosity at high shear rate and from the shear-thinning extent proposed by Ziegler et al. slightly deviate from that from TEM micrograph, which indicates that shear-induced structure lie. Moreover, the prediction using various rheological models, as the viscosity ratio of the two coexisting phases is substituted for that of the pure components, is in nearly good agreement with that from TEM observation.     

MMA bulk polymerization and its influence on in situ resin viscosity comparing several chemorheological models

Earlier published rheological data of methyl methacrylate (MMA) heated and isothermally polymerized at temperatures between 50 and 80°C have been reanalyzed using three semiempirical models of viscosity advancement including a modified Boltzmann sigmoidal model, a microgel model for cure, and a first‐order isothermal kinetic model. These alternative models possessed few fitting parameters and could be used without requiring more experiments to be run. For each dataset as a function of temperature, the analysis resolved time constants associated with both the induction time for polymerization and the rate of viscosity rise, which were inversely related to the polymerization temperature. We found the sigmoidal model the most robust to accommodate nonlinearities in viscosity advancement with radical polymerization of MMA. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
