Spectrum of turbulent-boundary-layer fluctuation pressure and response of a polyvinylidence fluoride hydrophone

The point power spectrum density and the wavenumber frequency spectrum density of turbulent - boundary- layer fluctuation pressure were measured in water-tunnel by use of a 8 mm hydrophone and a 20-element array, respectively. The non-dimensional representation of measured point power spectrum coincides with the measured results by Bull M. K. et. al. in wind tunnel. The convection peak can be seen clearly in the measured wavenumber frequency spectrum and the convection velocity can be calculated from the location of the convection peak. The response spectrum of a polyvinylidence fluoride (PVDF) hydrophone, which receiving area is 100 mm× 60 nun, was also measured. By comparing it with the response spectrtum of the 8 mm hydrophone, it is shown that the PVDF hyrdophone has a strong wavenumber filtering effect on turbulent - boundary-layer pressure fluctuation.

Experimental study for frequency spectrum of turbulent boundary layer pressure fluctuation

An experimental study on TBL (turbulent boundary layer) pressure fluctuation frequeny spectrum of a revolution body is presented. With the measured results, a relation of convective frequency fo of the models is obtained. Relations of turbuleat wall-pressure fluctuation spectrum in transition region and development region to frequency and speed are obtained also

A New Empirical Method for Constructing Capillary Pressure Curves from Conventional Logs in Low-Permeability Sandstones

Pore structure reflected from capillary pressure curves plays an important role in low-permeability formation evaluation. It is a common way to construct capillary pressure curves by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance（NMR） log. However, the method＇s efficiency will be severely affected if there is no NMR log data or it cannot reflect pore structure well. Therefore, on the basis of J function and diagenetic facies classification, a new empirical model for constructing capillary pressure curves from conventional logs is proposed here as a solution to the problem. This model includes porosity and the relative value of natural gamma rays as independent variables and the saturation of mercury injection as a dependent variable. According to the 51 core experimental data sets of three diagenetic facies from the bottom of the Upper Triassic in the western Ordos Basin, China, the model＇s parameters in each diagenetic facies are calibrated. Both self-checking and extrapolation tests show a positive effect, which demonstrates the high reliability of the proposed capillary pressure curve construction model. Based on the constructed capillary pressure curves, NMR T_2 spectra under fully brine-saturated conditions are mapped by a piecewise power function. A field study is then presented. Agreement can be seen between the mapped NMR T_2 spectra and the MRIL-Plog data in the location of the major peak, right boundary, distribution characteristics and T_2 logarithmic mean value. In addition, the capillary pressure curve construction model proposed in this paper is not affected by special log data or formation condition. It is of great importance in evaluating pore structure, predicting oil production and identifying oil layers through NMR log data in low-permeability sandstones.
