Drag and inertia coefficients for a circular cylinder in steady plus low-amplitude oscillatory flows     

《Applied Ocean Research》2017

Computer simulations of steady plus low-amplitude oscillatory flow about a circular cylinder are reported at a fixed Reynolds number of 150 based on the steady component. The conventional Keleugan–Carpenter number based on the oscillatory component is fixed at π/5. The oscillation frequency is varied so as to study a wide spectrum of flows where inertial forces dominate at one end and viscous drag forces at the other as a function of the modified Keleugan–Carpenter number. The hydrodynamic force on the cylinder in-line with the flow direction is represented by Morison's equation and an extended version with three terms. The drag and inertia coefficients in Morison's equation are determined by least-squares fits to data directly computed from integration of skin friction and pressure distributions around the periphery of the cylinder. The root-mean-square value of the residue of reconstructed minus directly-computed forces varies between 2 and 41% depending on the flow parameters. Comparable results can be obtained with a semi-theoretical approach using inviscid inertia and quasi-steady viscous drag terms. Physical explanations for the variation of the force coefficients are provided and implications for pertinent flow–structure interactions are discussed.  相似文献   

On the fluid structure interaction of a marine cycloidal propeller     

《Applied Ocean Research》2017

Marine cycloidal propulsion system is efficient in maneuvering ships like tugs, ferries, etc. It is capable of vectoring thrust in all direction in a horizontal plane. When used in pair, the system enables a vessel to perform maneuvers like moving sideways, perform rotation about a point, i.e. turning diameter of its own length, etc. In this system, the propeller blades have to change their angle of attack at different angular position of the disc. Due to this reason, the inflow velocity vector to propeller blades changes continuously. The propeller blade oscillates about a vertical axis passing through its body and at the same time rotates about a point. Superposed on these motions is the dynamics of the ship on which the propulsion system is installed. This results in a formidable and challenging hydrodynamics problem. Each of the propeller blade sections could be considered as an aerofoil operating in combined heave and pitch oscillation mode. Due to the constantly varying inflow velocity, the hydrodynamic flow is unsteady. The unsteady hydrodynamic flow is simulated by incorporating the effect of shed vortices at different time instant behind the trailing edge. Due to the kinematics of the problem, the blade is subjected to higher structural deformation and vibration load. The structural deformation and vibration when coupled with the hydrodynamic loading add another level of complexity to the problem. In this paper, the variation of hydrodynamic load on the propeller blade due to steady and unsteady flow is compared. We also model the structural dynamics of the blade and study its effect on the hydrodynamic loading. Finally, we couple the structural dynamics with hydrodynamics loading and study its influence on the propeller blade for different operating regimes.  相似文献   

Geothermometry and geobarometry of overpressured lower Paleozoic gas shales in the Jiaoshiba field,Central China: Insight from fluid inclusions in fracture cements     

《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2017

The Wufeng-Longmaxi organic-rich shales host the largest shale gas fields of China. This study examines sealed fractures within core samples of the Wufeng-Longmaxi shales in the Jiaoshiba shale gas field in order to understand the development of overpressures (in terms of magnitude, timing and burial) in Wufeng-Longmaxi shales and thus the causes of present-day overpressure in these Paleozoic shale formations as well as in all gas shales. Quartz and calcite fracture cements from the Wufeng-Longmaxi shale intervals in four wells at depth intervals between 2253.89 m and 3046.60 m were investigated, and the fluid composition, temperature, and pressure during natural fracture cementation determined using an integrated approach consisting of petrography, Raman spectroscopy and microthermometry. Many crystals in fracture cements were found to contain methane inclusions only, and aqueous two-phase inclusions were consistently observed alongside methane inclusions in all cement samples, indicating that fluid inclusions trapped during fracture cementation are saturated with a methane hydrocarbon fluid. Homogenization temperatures of methane-saturated aqueous inclusions provide trends in trapping temperatures that Th values concentrate in the range of 198.5 °C–229.9 °C, 196.2 °C-221.7 °C for quartz and calcite, respectively. Pore-fluid pressures of 91.8–139.4 MPa for methane inclusions, calculated using the Raman shift of C-H symmetric stretching (v₁) band of methane and equations of state for supercritical methane, indicate fluid inclusions trapped at near-lithostatic pressures. High trapping temperature and overpressure conditions in fluid inclusions represent a state of temperature and overpressure of Wufeng-Longmaxi shales at maximum burial and the early stage of the Yanshanian uplift, which can provide a key evidence for understanding the formation and evolution of overpressure. Our results demonstrate that the main cause of present-day overpressure in shale gas deposits is actually the preservation of moderate-high overpressure developed as a result of gas generation at maximum burial depths.  相似文献   

Identification and characterization of fluid escape structures (pockmarks) in the Estremadura Spur,West Iberian Margin     

《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2017

Located on the West Iberian margin, between Cabo Carvoeiro and Cabo da Roca, the Estremadura Spur is a trapezoidal promontory elongated in an east-west direction, extending until the Tore seamount. Recently a field with more than 70 pockmarks was discovered in the NW region of the Estremadura Spur outer shelf (Lourinhã Monocline). Pockmarks are the seabed culminations of fluid migration through the sedimentary column and their characteristic seabed morphologies correspond to cone-shaped circular or elliptical depressions. The characterization of these features and the understanding of the associated fluid escape process are the main objectives of this work. Here we characterize these structures to understand their structural and stratigraphic control based on: 1) Seismic processing and interpretation of the high resolution 2D single-channel sparker seismic dataset, 2) Bathymetric and Backscatter interpretation and 3) ROV direct observation of the seafloor.The analysis of the seismic profiles allowed the identification of six seismic units, disturbed by the migration and accumulation of fluids. The Estremadura Spur outer shelf has been affected by several episodes of fluid migration and fluid escape during the Pliocene-Quaternary that are expressed by a vast number of seabed and buried pockmarks. At present, the pockmarks are mainly inactive, as the seabed pockmarks are covered by recent sediments. It is concluded that the migration of fluids to the seabed occurred over the Pliocene-Quaternary, as indicated by the buried pockmarks at different depths below the seabed. The vertical stacking of various pockmarks suggests a cyclical fluid flow activity that can possibly be the result of the eustatic sea level variations and the subsequent changes of the hydrostatic pressure.  相似文献   

Seismic and structural characterization of fluid escape pipes using 3D and partial stack seismic from the Loyal Field (Scotland,UK): A multiphase and repeated intrusive mechanism     

《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2017

The potential for fluid leakage from sub-surface reservoirs has important implications for CO2 storage, hydrocarbon reservoirs and water resources. Understanding the genesis, morphology, fluid flow mechanisms and extent of fluid escape from reservoirs allows for better risking of geological resources and storage potential. Here we describe in detail the structures of fluid escape pipes from the Loyal Field, observed from a 3D full and partial stack seismic dataset. The seismic imagery suggests that the fluid escape pipes are rooted at least in the main Paleocene reservoir and by-pass the reservoir seal to cross the post Lista Formation overburden up to the intra-Neogene units. The pipes extend for a few hundred meters to a few kilometres and show varying shape and structure from blow-out structures to incipient mud volcanoes. A detailed analysis of the seismic characteristics observed both from main baseline and partial stack data allows a division of the pipes into two families: (1) seeps and pipes following structural discontinuities and (2) pipes unrelated to the pre-existing structural features. The pipes internal seismic response, the reflector termination of the main conduits and the distribution of stacked bright reflectors suggest an upward migration mechanism (during pipe birth and development), requiring a cyclic switching from non-Darcy hydrofracturing (during overpressure) to Darcy flow lateral migration (during low-pressure stage).  相似文献   

Focused fluid flow and the sub-seabed storage of CO2: Evaluating the leakage potential of seismic chimney structures for the Sleipner CO2 storage operation     

《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2017

The integrity of the caprock of a storage formation is the most crucial parameter for the long-term performance of a geological CO₂ storage site. The Sleipner area in the Southern Viking Graben hosts the first and longest operating industrial scale CO₂ storage project, where CO₂ is injected in a saline aquifer of the Utsira Formation. Time-lapse seismic monitoring shows neither that CO₂ has left the Utsira Formation nor indications for fracturing of the caprock by the CO₂ injection activity, which is in agreement with previous numerical simulations. However, large chimney structures as close as 7 km from the injection point indicate that the caprock has been breached in the geological past, which may raise questions about the integrity of the caprock above the Sleipner CO₂ storage site. Here, we present seismically constrained numerical fluid flow simulations that evaluate the influence of chimney structures on the long-term performance of the CO₂ storage operation at Sleipner. The simulation could reproduce the spreading of the Sleipner CO₂ plume, which is controlled by the anisotropic permeability field of the Utsira Formation and the regional dip of the formation top. We have performed long-term plume evolution simulations, which show that the injected CO₂ will not reach the existing chimney structures assuming a realistic injection duration of 30 years. Our simulations indicate that an unrealistically long injection period between 92 and 140 years would be required for the CO₂ to reach the existing chimney structures. In this case, a comparably low chimney permeability of 10 mD may be sufficient to facilitate CO₂ migration from the storage formation to the seafloor, once the CO₂ has reached a chimney structure. However, the simulations indicate that it is very unlikely that the CO₂ may migrate along existing chimney structures at Sleipner. Our results highlight that the reconstruction of palaeo fluid flow systems and the identification of focused fluid conduits should be considered in the assessment of CO₂ storage sites.  相似文献

大坪金矿是云南哀牢山金矿带中最大的新生代造山型金矿之一,其矿体可分为两种类型:晚元古代闪长岩岩体中金矿和中泥盆统马鹿洞组(D2m)灰岩地层中金矿。成矿流体H-O-C-S同位素研究表明,闪长岩岩体中金矿δ18OH2O为2.39‰～7.59‰,δD为-85‰～-60‰,热液方解石的δ13C值为-4.7‰～-4.6‰,黄铁矿δ34S值为-2.8‰～7.6‰,平均3.1‰,方铅矿δ34S值为0.2‰～6.3‰,平均2.0‰,而灰岩地层中金矿的δ18OH2O值为4.36‰～6.82‰,δD为-75‰～-67‰,热液铁白云石和方解石δ13C为-7.6‰～-0.5‰,黄铁矿δ34S值为2.2‰～10.2‰,平均6.5‰,显示大坪金矿中两种主要金矿类型成矿流体的组成和来源基本一致,均主要为来自下地壳的变质流体组成,但有地幔流体加入。大坪金矿属于剪切带控制的中深中温热液型金矿,其成矿与哀牢山金矿带在喜马拉雅早期强烈的壳幔相互作用有关。来自下地壳和地幔的深源流体沿超壳剪切带上升,在地壳浅部向次级断裂构造流通,分别在闪长岩体和灰岩地层中成矿。围岩不是大坪金矿的主要控矿因素。  相似文献
