Pressure surge in a pipe due to sudden flow rate change or full-stop of fluid flow is a pressure wave propagating in fluid along the pipe. This phenomenon has been used to determine the flow rate and to detect and monitor changes in effective flow diameter. It turns out that the pressure surge, also known as pressure pulse, can be used to estimate the formation transmissivity and storativity in the near wellbore region. In this study, propagation of pressure pulse generated by sudden valve closure is simulated with a transient pipe flow model, and it is coupled with a transient analytical reservoir model. The coupled model is used to estimate the reservoir parameters by history matching approach, which is to iterate the transmissivity and the storativity values until an acceptable match is obtained between the measured and simulated pressure history at the upstream of valve. The developed modeling and estimation scheme is applied with two data sets from a field well test to estimate reservoir parameters. The reservoir parameters transmissivity and storativity in the near wellbore region were obtained from the history matching analysis. Matching analysis with the coupled model on the recorded wellhead pressure during two tests showing obvious different flowing conditions points out very similar reservoir parameter values.

Simulation of flow transients in liquid pipeline systems
Koç, Gencer; Eralp, O. Cahit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
Transient flow is a situation where the pressure and flow rate in the pipeline rapidly changes with time. Flow transients are also known as surge and Waterhammer which originates from the hammering sound of the water in the taps or valves. In liquid pipelines, preliminary design parameters are chosen for steady state operations, but a transient check is always necessary. There are various types of transient flow situations such as valve closures, pump trips and flow oscillations. During a transient flow, pr...

Türkmenoğlu, Artuğ; Sınayuç, Çağlar; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2016)
Pressure - Volume - Temperature (PVT) analyses simulate the reservoir fluid behavior while flowing from the reservoir to the surface under varying pressure, volume and temperature conditions. There are several PVT simulators that perform PVT calculations. Accurate characterization of a fluid is very important for further studies and reservoir simulations in all reservoir engineering aspects. Because there are a few equations of state and many types of reservoir and reservoir fluids, experimental data does n...
Numerical investigation of effective surge tank dimensions in hydropower plants under various hydraulic conditions
Berberoğlu, Pınar; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2013)
In water conveyance systems, sudden changes in the flow velocity cause a phenomenon called waterhammer associated with high pressure head changes. Unless a control device is used as a precaution, waterhammer may result in costly damages and even in some cases, loss of human lives. In light of this concept, different control devices that can protect the systems against waterhammer are introduced so that the great pressure differences are absorbed and the system is maintained undamaged. In this thesis, the ma...
Investigation of water hammer problems and potential solutions in pump discharge lines
Erdem, Recep Çağrı; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
Disturbance in boundary conditions of a hydraulic system could cause rapid change in flow velocity in confined pipe systems. Pressure wave leading to an event called water hammer may occur as a consequence of that disturbance. Water hammer could lead to catastrophic failures on the hydraulic systems. Thus, proper protection measures should be defined and installed in the system before it is put into operation. The aim of this study is to analyze a pumped discharge line and ensure its safe operation against ...

Bezdegümeli, Uğur; Yeşin, Ahmet Orhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2003)
In this thesis study, air bubble motion in counter-current water flow conditions in a vertical pipe is investigated experimentally. For this purpose, a test set-up was designed and constructed. Images of motions of single bubbles, having different diameters in the range of 3.0-4.8 mm, generated by specially designed bubble injectors were recorded by using a monochrome camera, an image capture card and a PC. Recorded video images were processed to obtain the necessary data for the The purpose of the study is...
