Rescaling of equipotential smoothing (open access)

Rescaling of equipotential smoothing

A method is described for locally rescaling the curvilinear coordinates used in continuous rezoning of Lagrangian meshes by the equipotential method. In this way the zone aspect ratio may be brought closer to unity.

Texas Register, Volume 7, Number 61, Pages 3017-3046, August 17, 1982

A weekly publication, the Texas Register serves as the journal of state agency rulemaking for Texas. Information published in the Texas Register includes proposed, adopted, withdrawn and emergency rule actions, notices of state agency review of agency rules, governor's appointments, attorney general opinions, and miscellaneous documents such as requests for proposals. After adoption, these rulemaking actions are codified into the Texas Administrative Code.

User's manual for the code STAPRE as implemented at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory

This report gives a detailed description of the input and output of the statistical model code STAPRE for compound-nucleus reactions including a special section on the various level density options of the code. It is to be used in conjunction with the report IRK 76/01 + Add 76 + Add 78 by B. Strohmaier and M. Uhl which describes in detail the physical models on which the code is based and its general organization and structure.

Damage to porous media due to the degradation of flocculants (open access)

Damage to porous media due to the degradation of flocculants

The results of laboratory experiments involving the flow of two commercial flocculant solutions through Berea sandstone core plugs at 225/sup 0/C are summarized. The two flocculants used are TFL-398 and TFL-362 (commercial flocculants supplied by Tretolite Division of Petrolite Corporation). The flow of brine containing these flocculants through these sandstone cores resulted in considerable permeability reductions during the flow experiments even when used at concentrations of only 5 ppM. The reduction in permeability is attributed to the plugging of pore spaces by the degradation products. The results of these experiments demonstrated that the use of a flocculant can cause severe formation damage. It is, therefore recommended, to always conduct laboratory tests prior to the use of any specific flocculant for geothermal applications to avoid any damage to injection wells.
