An oil reservoir has a average porosity of 20%, an area of 100 acres, and a av- erage thickness of 10 feet. The connate water sa

turation is 25% and the resid ual oil saturation is 35%. No gas is present.
a.Calculate the recovery factor for the oil reservoir.
b.Calculate the volume of oil which may be recovered per acre-ft of reser voir Calculate the bulk volume of the reservoir in units of acre-ft.

Answer:a) recovery factor = 53.3% ,bi) volume of oil per acre-ft = 11090.64bbl/acre-ft

bii) bulk volume of the reservoir in acre-ft = 1000 acre-ft

c) 62214.74 cubic feet

Explanation: a) recovery factor is the percentage amount of oil that can recovered from a reservoir, it is the oil produced divided by oil initially in place

Recovery factor= 1 - (Soi/1-Swi)

= 1 - (0.35/1-0.25)

= 0.533 × 100%

= 53.3%

bi) volume of oil which may be recovered per acre-ft = 7758.porosity.(1- Swi-Soi)

= 7758 x 0.2 x (1-0.25-0.35)

= 620.64 bbl/acre-ft

bii) bulk volume of the reservoir in acre-ft= Area x thickness

= 100 acres x 10 ft

= 1000 acre-ft

c) total volume of oil in cubic feet

since we have gotten volume as 1000 acre-ft we simply multiply it by the volume of oil gotten in answer bi)

= 1000 acre-ft x 620.64 bbl/ acre-ft

= 620640bbl

So we convert from barrel(bbl) to cubic feet, and 1 barrel is equal to 5.609 cubic feet, so to convert the answer from barrel to cubic feet we multiply the answer 620640 bbl by 5.609

= 620640 bbl x 5.609

= 3481580.711 cubic feet

The difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is:___________
leva [86]

Answer:

c. an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

Explanation:

Conduction refers to the transfer of thermal energy or electric charge as a result of the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

Hence, the difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is that an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The correct response is "821.88". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question,

The largest amount unresolved after five years would have been:

= 35000\times (\frac{F}{P}, 4 \ percent,5 )

= 35000\times 1.216 7

= 42584.50

Now,

time (t) will be:

= 5\times 12

= 60 \ monthly \ payments

So, monthly payment will be:

= 42582.85\times (\frac{A}{P}, 0.5 \ percent,60 )

= 42584.50\times 0.0193

= 821.88

The design specifications of a 1.2-m long solid circular transmission shaft require that the angle of twist of the shaft not exc
Verizon [17]

Answer:

c = 18.0569 mm

Explanation:

Strategy  

We will find required diameter based on angle of twist and based on shearing stress. The larger value will govern.  

Given Data  

Applied Torque

T = 750 N.m

Length of shaft

L = 1.2 m

Modulus of Rigidity

G = 77.2 GPa

Allowable Stress

г = 90 MPa

Maximum Angle of twist  

∅=4°

∅=4*\pi/180

∅=69.813 *10^-3 rad

Required Diameter based on angle of twist  

∅=TL/GJ

∅=TL/G*\pi/2*c^4

∅=2TL/G*\pi*c^4

c=\sqrt[4]{2TL/\pi G }∅

c=18.0869 *10^-3 rad

Required Diameter based on shearing stress

г = T/J*c

г = [T/(J*\pi/2*c^4)]*c

г =[2T/(J*\pi*c^4)]*c

c=17.441*10^-3 rad

Minimum Radius Required  

We will use larger of the two values  

c= 18.0569 x 10^-3 m  

c = 18.0569 mm

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

80.7lbft/hr

Explanation:

Flow rate of water in the system = 3.6x10^-6

The height h = 100

1s = 1/3600h

This implies that

Q = 3.6x10^-6/[1/3600]

Q = 0.0000036/0.000278

Q = 0.01295

Then the power is given as

P = rQh

The specific weight of water = 62.3 lb/ft³

P = 62.3 x 0.01295 x 100

P = 80.675lbft/h

When approximated

P = 80.7 lbft/h

This is the average power that could be generated in a year.

This answers the question and also corresponds with the answer in the question.
