Experimental and Numerical Simulation Studies of Miscible Displacement

摘要

Using simple two- and three-component hydrocarbon mixtures, the ability is evaluated of the Peng-Robinson and Soave-Redlich-Kwong equations of state to simulate phase behavior and slim-tube displacement experiments. A good match of the experimental phase behavior was obtained. When this phase match was used to simulate the slim-tube displacement experiments, the agreement between the experimental and calculated results was poor. The effect of numerical dispersion has also been investigated. (ERA citation 12:007925)
