... treatment parameters simultaneously; maximizing objective function (net present value) and satisfying newly modeled design constraints. These constraints are formulated as functions of treatment parameters, fracture geometry, and mechanical and petrophysical properties of the reservoir, so that the critical...

...Weipeng Jiang; Cem Sarica, Assoc. Mem. ASME; Erdal Ozkan, Assoc. Mem. ASME; Mohan Kelkar The fluids in horizontal wells can exhibit complicated flow behaviors, in part due to interaction between the main flow and the influxes along the wellbore, and due to completion geometries. An existing small...

...Azfar Kamal; S. R. Gollahalli, Fellow ASME An investigation of the effects of burner exit Reynolds number on the relative effects of burner geometry (circular and elliptic with an aspect ratio 2:4) in a propane jet flame is presented. Circular and elliptic burners of the equivalent area...

...Brenton S. McLaury; Siamack A. Shirazi; Tim L. Burden Erosion is a complex phenomenon that depends on many factors such as fluid properties, solid particle properties, flow stream velocity, flow geometry, and type of metal. Flow modeling and particle tracking are important tools for predicting...
