13. MODELAGEM SÍSMICA EM ARENITOS: EFEITO DA DISPERSÃO DA VELOCIDADE E DO TIPO DE FLUIDO / SANDSTONE SEISMIC MODELING: EFFECTS OF VELOCITY DISPERSION AND FLUID TYPE
The evaluation of reservoir dynamics during production through time-lapse interpretation has reached a substantial importance in the petroleum industry, mainly in sandstones. This evaluation presents many challenges, mainly concerned to unmask the overlapping of different effects in seismic data due to reservoir changes. Several factors affect seismic proper

14. Heat transfer in porous media
In this work, the effects of electrical double layer (EDL) near the solid/ liquid interface, on three dimensional heat transfer characteristic and pressure drop of water flow through a rectangular microchannel numerically are investigated. An additional body force originating from the existence of EDL is considered to modify the conventional Navier-stokes an

15. ESCOAMENTO DE EMULSÕES ÓLEO- ÁGUA ATRAVÉS DE CAPILARES COM GARGANTA / FLOW OF OIL-IN-WATER EMULSIONS THROUGH CONSTRICTED CAPILLARIES
Flow of emulsions is found in many petroleum recovery and production processes and it is often referred to in the context of tertiary oil recovery. The characteristics of emulsion flow in porous media depend on several parameters such as medium drop size to pore size ratio, viscosity ratio, flow rate and the effect of these parameters is far from being entir

16. GERAÇÃO DE EMULSÕES DURANTE A PRODUÇÃO DE PETRÓLEO / EMULSION GENERATION DURING OIL PRODUCTION
Emulsion formation during oil production may take place in the flow inside the reservoir or in the two-phase flow down hole in production wells, and through pipelines and valves in surface facilities. Emulsions can cause a number of operational problems such as tripping of equipment in gas-oil separations plants and high pressure drops in flow lines. Flow co

17. ESCOAMENTO DE LÍQUIDO PSEUDO-PLÁSTICO ATRAVÉS DE CAPILAR COM GARGANTA / FLOW OF PSEUDO-PLASTIC LIQUID THROUGH CAPILLARY TUBES WITH THROAT
Due to its application on a large number of fields and activities which are vital for the modern world, being oil prospection one of them, the flow of fluids on porous media have been studied in many experimental works and theoretical pieces. For instance, regarding the recovery of oil fields, it is challenging to predict the behavior of fluids that will be

18. NUMERICAL IMPLEMENTATION OF ACOPPLING SURFACE WATER: GROUNDWATER / UMA IMPLEMENTAÇÃO NUMÉRICA DO ACOPLAMENTO ÁGUA SUPERFICIAL: ÁGUA SUBTERRÂNEA
While analyzing the interaction between the hydrological processes of surface and groundwater flow, it is seen that there is a big difference in its interaction in the space and time. These processes can be represented in a qualitative form as part of the hydrological cycle, demonstrating its dependences and importance in the hydrological balance. This work

19. OIL DISPLACEMENT IN A POROUS MEDIA THROUGH INJECTION OF OIL-IN-WATER EMULSION: ANALYSIS OF LINEAR FLOW / DESLOCAMENTO DE ÓLEO EM UM MEIO POROSO ATRAVÉS DE INJEÇÃO DE EMULSÕES ÓLEO-EM-ÁGUA: ANÁLISE DE FLUXO LINEAR
A injeção de emulsão é um método comum para melhorar o varrido do reservatório e manter-lo pressurizado. A eficiência de recuperação de óleo no caso de óleos pesados é limitada pela alta razão de mobilidade entre a água injetada e o óleo. Um método de reduzir o problema relativo µa alta razão de viscosidade é por injeção de soluções po

20. Métodos de elementos finitos estabilizados para escoamentos de Darcy e de Stokes-Darcy acoplados / Stabilized finite element methods for darcy and coupled stokes-darcy flows
In this thesis we propose new stabilized finite element methods for Darcy flow and for the coupled Stokes-Darcy flow. We review the Galerkin method applied to the classical variational formulations of the Darcy s system, and comment on some stabilization techniques proposed in the literature. Through the consistent combination of least square residuals of th

21. Injection of the tracers in petroleum reservoir: multiscale modeling and numerical simulation / Injeção de traçadores em reservatórios de petróleo: modelagem multi-escala e simulação numérica
The spatial variations in porous media (aquifers and petroleum reservoirs) occur at all length scales (from the pore scale to the reservoir scale) and are incorporated in the governing equations for multiphase flow problems on the basis of random fields (geostatistical models). As a consequence, the velocity field is a random function of space. The randomnes

22. MODELAGEM NUMÉRICA DE FLUXO 3D EM MEIOS POROSOS / NUMERICAL MODELING OF 3D FLOW IN POROUS MEDIA
Numerical simulations tend to simplify the behavior of real problems, mainly through the choice of 2D models to describe the hydromechanical responses of earth dams, excavations, foundations, etc., partly because it is easier to construct geometrical meshes, it is simpler to impose the required boundary conditions, the computer calculations are done more rap

23. Comportamento da filtração de gases em meios filtrantes de celulose.
The present work aims to evaluate, through filtration process and cake detachment, the behavior of two cellulose fiber filtering media with different air permeability values. The powder material used was phosphatic concentrated rock of density 2,99 g/cm3 and its average volumetric diameter of 8,34 m. The equipment used was constituted of a circular filter, p

24. A COUPLED MODEL FOR TWO-PHASE FLOW THROUGH ELASTOPLASTIC POROUS MEDIA / UM MODELO ACOPLADO PARA FLUXO BIFÁSICO EM MEIOS POROSOS ELASTOPLÁSTICOS
This dissertation studies a coupled flow and deformation model for saturated and non-saturated soils, based on Biot`s theory but taking into account the nonlinear material behavior of soil. In the non-saturated condition the fluid flow can be considered either as a two-phase or an one-phase problem. In the two-phase case, the model calculates the pressure of
