Porous medium has got a great interest especially in the recent years, for its wide application in geophysics, petroleum, and air conditioning. Many studies related to porous medium were performed, and most of them are dealing with constant porosity. For the act: that porosity is non-uniform, a great concern has been directed toward the variable porosity studies. In this study, the effects of a double layer porous medium on the free convection along vertical plate embedded in this porous medium were investigated. The governing partial nonlinear differential equations were transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations, which have been solved by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The results are obtained for different layer permeability K, and layer length, L. One case is compared with the previous study, and the result is found to be in good agreement with the result of previous study. Results show that permeability ratios greater than one tend to increase in Nusselt number, and it is valuable to use a high permeability ratio layer in the range of 0.2 eta to get higher heat transfer rate instead of using constant permeability medium.

Mathematical modeling of adsorption/desorption systems for chemical heat pumps
Yurtsever, Ahmet Onur; Uludağ, Yusuf; Karakaş, Gürkan; Department of Chemical Engineering (2011)
Despite their limited commercial applications, chemical heat pumps (CHP) have been considered as an important alternative to conventional heating and cooling technologies. In this study, the adsorption-desorption of ethanol over activated carbon was applied on the CHP reactor. The ethanol vapor - activated carbon adsorption rate was determined at 30, 60, 90 and 120° experimentally by using Intelligent Gravimetric Analyzer C(IGA). The experimental adsorption data were used on the transient modeling of reacto...
Local air quality impacts due to downwash around thermal power plants: Numerical simulations of the effect of building orientation
Kayın, Serpil; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Yurteri, Coşkun (1999-09-01)
One of the primary adverse environmental impacts associated with power generation facilities and in particular thermal power plants is local air quality. When these plants are operated at inland areas the dry type cooling towers used may significantly increase ambient concentrations of air pollutants due to the building downwash effect. When one or more buildings in the vicinity of a point source interrupt wind flow, an area of turbulence known as a building wake is created. Pollutants emitted from relative...
Optimization of CO₂ EOR and storage design under uncertainity
Bender, Serdar; Akın, Serhat; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2016)
The combination of CO₂ enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and permanent CO₂ storage in mature oil reservoirs have the potential to provide a critical near-term solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In the literature, although there are many studies about CO₂ storage and EOR, only a few studies have focused on maximizing both the oil recovery and the CO₂ storage. Moreover, these studies are either experimental or conducted using synthetic reservoir models. Typically, pure CO₂ has the property of mixing wi...
Non-isothermal kinetic analysis and feasibilty study of medium grade crude oil field
Kök, Mustafa Verşan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-03-01)
In this research, non-isothermal kinetics and feasibility study of medium grade crude oil is studied in the presence of a limestone matrix. Experiments were performed at a heating rate of 10 degrees C min(-1), whereas the air flow rate was kept constant at 50 mL min(-1) in the temperature range of 20 to 600 degrees C (DSC) and 20 to 900 degrees C (TG). In combustion with air, three distinct reaction regions were identified in all crude oil/limestone mixtures, known as low temperature oxidation (LTO), fuel d...
Candidate selection process for polymer gel application by using artificial neural networks
Örs, Oytun; Sınayuç, Çağlar; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2017)
Rapid increase in water-oil ratio has been one of the most important challenges of the oil companies that are producing from the mature oil fields. For this reason, various studies have been conducted to diminish the excessive water production. One of the most widely used chemical shutoff technique, polymer gel treatment, involves injection of different polymers into the production wells in order to plug the easy flow pathways of the excessive water. For the successful application of the polymer gel treatme...
