Based on the atomic occupation probability figure on 2D and order parameters, it was found that the IPB formed by different directions ofθ phase has great effect on the precipitation of γ ′ phase. The γ ′ phase precipitated at the IPB that is formed by [1 00]θ direction where the ( 001)θ plane is opposite, and then grows up and the shape is strap at final. The IPB structure between γ ′phase andθ phase is the same. There is no γ ′ phase precipitate at the IPB where the ( 002)θ and ( 001)θ planes are opposite, the ordered IPB is dissolved into disordered area. There is γ ′ phase precipitation at the IPB formed by the [ 001]θ and [1 00]θ directions, and the IPB structure is different between γ ′ phase and the different directions ofθ phase. The IPB where ( 001)γ′ and (1 00)θ plane opposite does not migrate during the γ ′ phase growth, and γ ′ phase grows along [1 00]θdirection.展开更多

Due to the prohibitive NMR experiment cost, numerical simulation was employed as an alternative approach to verify some theoretical aspects of NMR responses. Firstly, the basic principles of pore-scale NMR simulation based on random-walk method(RWM) were introduced. The RWM-simulated results were benchmarked with the analytical results for an ideal spherical pore model. Then, the effects of two numerical parameters, namely diffusion radius and walk numbers, were studied on the simulation accuracy. The simulation method is then applied to various pore models with different pore sizes and pore shapes filled with different fluids to study the microscopic NMR response characteristics. The numerical experiments are useful for understanding and interpreting NMR measurements and the simulation code provides a numerical tool to perform pixel-based digital rock analysis.展开更多
