Transport phenomena manometers

Key learning in transport phenomena :-
Unit of viscosity in oil field units is:- centipoise
Dimensional equation:- The eqn having a constant which has units is called a dimensional eqn.
1 ft = 30.48 cm
1 ft^3 = 0.0283 m^3
Compressible fluids:- If density changes with pressure and temp. then the fluid is called compressible fluid.
Fluid is a substance that doesnt permanently resist distortion.
Static pressure of fluid flow is measured in the direction parallel to the flow of the fluid.
dynamic pressure is measured in the perpendicular direction to the fluid flow.
Static pressure has to be measured about 50 diameters away from any bends, to get the accurate values.

Petroleum geology Duplex theory of origin

Duplex theory of origin of petroleum
This theory says that initially the hydrocarbon may be formed abiologically due Fischer - tropsch reaction. Then it must be acted upon by the living organisms like bacteria thus giving rise to the organic hydrocarbon.
The Fischer tropsch reaction is in general the reaction of carbon monoxide with hydrogen giving rise to the hydrocarbon and water.
It can be given as follow:- C+ Fe+H+OH------>CH4+C2H6+C3H8+C4H10+FeO
CO2+HOH+Fe---->CH4+FeO
C+HOH+Fe-->CH4+CO2+H2
Temp needed is 500°C
Robinson in 1963 and Szatmari in 1986 explained the same theory in different forms. Szatmari used plate tectonics to explain it.

Petroleum geology organic origin theory

Supports for organic origin theory:-
Vast amount of organic matter is found in sedimentary rocks. Hydrogen and carbon are predominant in remains of plants and animals.
Most of the crudes have porphyrin in them that is the most essential element of life form.

If  M in porphyrin is replaced by Fe then we get hemoglobin.
If M is replaced by Mg   then we get Chlorophyll
If M is replaced with Ni or V we get a cyclic porphyrin .
Porphyrin is not stable above 200 ° C . So inorganic theory is proved faulty, as the mantel is about 33 km below the surface and average temp gradient is about 25° C/km . So the temp till we reach mantel would be about 800 ° C where porphyrin cant exist, so it shouldnt be present in the crude if it was formed inorganically.
Most of the crudes contain Nitrogen which is the basics element of amino acids that form the basis of life form.
All crudes possess the property of rotating the plane of polarised light. such a property is possessed by cholesterol which is essential component of animals and plants. The inorganic substances that possess this property are cinnaber(HgS) and quartz(SiO2)

basics of measurement and control key points

Some key  points about open loop system:

1) Very simple and easy to understand.

2) No safety guarantee.

3) No accuracy guarantee.

Some key points about closed loop system:

1) Closed loop systems are always automatic system.

2) Most of the  closed loop system is divided in two parts,first is Measurement which measure and analyses the         data of system and other is Controller which control the system it may be automatic or  self control.

some of the important terms:

 Multi-input system:       More than one input

 Multi-output system:    More than one output

  In a plant there’s a control system consisting of control component which give the response.

i/p(Excitation) -> Control component -> o/p (response/behavior)

 Unit step i/p:  in which the value of input is 1.

Key points about Transfer function:

 It gives the characteristics of the system.

 Time varying behavior can be known using laplace transformation.

 Frequency response behavior can be known using fourier system.

 EXAMPLE

U(t) (excitation) -> Control component -> y(t) (response)

For this the transfer function is

= α y(t) / α u(t)    at t=0 and y(t)=0(initial condition) (alpha=laplace of that function)

=   y(s) / u(s)

 Transfer function only defined for a linear system.

 Linear system can be defined or measured by superposition theorem, Homogeni

basics of measurement and control superposition

The systems need to be controled because there are disturbances that are created which deviate the system from its set point or say set parameters.

Kind of disturbances:-

1) stoichistic

2) deterministic

Control systems:- The system consisting of various componenets that are connected logically is a control system.

optimality:- Minimum input + [error--->0] = optimality (optimal control)

Transfer function:- relation between input and output.

TF :- laplace(output)/laplace(input) |initial condition zero

Superposition:-

U1 + U2 —-> control system —-> Y

for U1=0 –> Y=Y1

for U2=0 –> Y=Y2

then for a linear system Y=Y1+Y2, this is superposition theorem.

Homogenity:- if input is 0 then output is zero is the priciple of homogenity.

then a simple example based on laplace transformation was solved in the class, to find the TF(transfer function)

basics of measurement and control systems

Nothing special was taught, only an overview of Measurement and Control was given. The two things that were explained were :-

1)open loop system:- in such kind of system there is no importance of the output quality , so there is no feedback mechanism to measure the variables and control them.

INPUT——–>OUTPUT(no quality requirement)

2)closed loop system:- in such a system the importance of output quality is high and hence there is a feedback mechanism made to control the system variables to maintain the system at the set point conditions. So there are sensors to measure the variables and controllers to control or say keep the system at required state  :D

INPUT——control—->output( required quality)                                                                                                                        |________feedback____|

that was the entire classs 1 of BMC

As per suggestion of kunal , the below section is added:-

Summing point is a point that gathers the information(process variable/value) given by sensors and the set parameters to find an error in the process output, so that an feedback can be generated to control the process and obtain an output as per set parameters.

Error= Set parameter(SP) – Process variable/value (VP)

Transport phenomena dimensional analysis

DIMENSION ANALYSIS

For the introduction he only told about the uses of DIMENSION ANALYSIS which all of us knows and if ne1 wants it then please let me knw(SAURABH)….

k one thing which he mentioned was about DIMENSIONLESS GROUPS…..

DIMENSIONLESS GROUPS = Group of symbols may be put together , either by theory or based on experiment, that have no net units , these are called dimensionless groups.

No. of dimensionless groups = (No. of variables) – (No. of fundamental dimensions)

eg:   REYNOLD’S NUMBER

STANDARD AND OTHER SYSTEM OF UNITS

———–>    WHAT IS “SLUG“????

SLUG is a unit of MASS in the BRITISH ENGINEERING SYSTEM!!!!

BRITISH ENGINEERING SYSTEM:

In this system MASS is not a FUMDAMENTAL DIMENSION whereas FORCE is a FUNDAMENTAL DIMENSION…..

MASS is derived!!!!

Dimensions used in this system:

L                 F                 T

ft                lb_f s         (ft=feet    lbf=pound force   s=seconds)

1 slug = 1 lb_f / (1 ft/s²)

—-> FOR 1 lb of mass, 1 lb_f force produces 32.1740 ft/s² acceleration

FTS :

In this system FORCE is not a FUMDAMENTAL DIMENSION whereas MASS is a FUNDAMENTAL DIMENSION…..

FORCE is derived!!!!

Dimensions used in this system:

L                 M                 T

ft                 lb                  s       (ft=feet    lb=pound   s=seconds)

—-> FOR 1 lb of mass, 1 POUNDAL produces 1 ft/s² acceleration

where POUNDAL is the force….

F (Pound Force) = ( MASS (Pound) x ACCELERATION (ft/s²) ) / g_c

Pound weight force = Pound force ………..(where g = 32.1740 ft/s²)

Normally in various books problems are solved by using both ‘g_c’ and ‘g’….

Where, g = g_c/32.1740

if you have ne correction to be made in this then please let me know(SAURABH SURYAWANSHI)

Added section:-

Generally to increase the no of dimensions and to differentiate between various entities of same units, L is taken as a vector and is expressed in terms of  (Lx ,Ly,Lz)

work:- M Lx  T^-2  Lx

Torque:- M  Lx  T^-2  Ly

angular velocity:- (Lx/Ly) T^-1

frequency:- T^-1

Shear stress:- F/ Lx  Ly^1/2  Lz^1/2

Scaling of   degree R, degree F, degree C and Kelvin(K) :-

100 delta(degree C) = 180 delta(degree F)

same is for K and degree R

The relation between R and K :- [note: scaling and relation are different terms dont mix them up]

R = 1.8 K

Petroleum geology- theories of origin

Petroleum geology

Theories of origin of petroleum:-

organic origin theory is widely accepted, as 97% of petroleum reservoirs are found in sedimentary rocks. Rest 3% are found in metamorphic as well as igneous rocks, that too with some conditions.

Inorganic theories:-

1) cosmic theory:- Bertheiot(1865) ,mendaleef(1877) suggested the formation of petroleum in earths interior by action of water on metallic carbides such as those of Ca and Fe.Another proposed mechanism involved in the interaction of alkali metals with co2 and water.

Metallic carbide + H2O vapour = CH4 + metallic hydroxide

Alkali metals + Co2 + H2O vapour = CH4 + alkali hydroxide

2) mantle theory/Gold’s earthquake out gassing theory:-

Enriched Delta(13C) of methane from hotspots of red sea, lake kivu(east africa) and pacific rise depicts an abiogenice origin(Mac donald).

Delta(13C) content in crude oil is -30%o(i.e per millenium)

some other key learning:-

oldest rock is found in greenland which is 4.2 billion years old.

2nd oldest rock is found in chota nagpur(singhbhum)

Origin of most petroleum in the world dates back to mesozoic to paleozoic

The origin of petroleum found in india lies in the cenozoic age.

petroleum geology

[ there might be some errors in the text below]

porosity is of 2 types:-
bulk: The porosity calculated considering the total pore spaces.
effective: the porosity calculated considering the pores that can hold hydrocarbon.

The component that will occupy the pore depends upon the pore size

Sedimentary texture:-structure formed due to sedimentation. It is of two types:-
1)that forms on surface:- Depends on flow and deposional enviornment(also known as bed forms)[example:ripple marks]

2)that forms in beds:-current bedding. enourmous importance in studying the depositional history.

Sedimentary structures are used to know the paleocurrent flow.

most indian oils are generated from type-3 kerogens. type-3 kerogens are derived from terrestial organic matter.

Transgression—> flooding –effect–>ground water table also rises —>controls eroison–>sedimentation is less

Regression:- base level of eroison decreases, area available for deposition decreases.

During the last glacial period the sea level decreases about 138 metres. lot of shelf was exposed, the base level of erosion went down
so no deposition in vast area Because slope of shelf is very less. Such an kind of unconformity formed is known
as 1st order unconformity.

Primary migration:- low permiability rock, Fine grain rock.

secondary migration:- high permeability rock, coarse grain rock.

For any suggestions and questions please post comments.

Petroleum geology

Some key learning points:-

bubble point can be defined on basis of  Temp and also pressure(which is the conventional way) individually . Also it can be defined on basis of both Temp and Pressure simultaneously.

what is a petroleum system??

ans: the system consisting of a source rock, a migration mechanism( primary or secondary) , a reservoir rock and a cap rock is known as a petroleum system. There are in all 70 petroleum systems in india, out of which around 35 are identified to have a potential.

Around 3.14 million sq.Km is covered with sedimentary rocks in india.

In a petroleum system there are potential areas where petroleum is found which are called oil pools, ONGC calls oil pools as assets.
