Cotton Fiber Properties and Moisture: Water of Imbibition

Textile Research Journal, 2005
Southern Regional Research Center (SRRC) is participating in a multi-year area-of-growth study of selected cotton cultivars. We report here preliminary moisture data (water of imbibition) on the cottons from the 2001 crop year, and compare them to maturity properties determined by image analysis and to micronaire.

Measuring and Modeling Water Imbibition into Tuff

2013
Yucca Mountain (Nevada) is being investigated as a potential site for a high-level-radioactive-waste repository. The site combines a partially saturated hydrologic system and a stratigraphy of fractured, welded and nonwelded tuffs. The long time scale for site hydrologic phenomena makes their direct measurement prohibitive.

Imbibition Oil Recovery from Fractured, Water-Drive Reservoir

Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal, 1962
Abstract Previous workers have developed differential equations to describe oil displacement by water imbibition, but have not explicitly defined the relationship between recovery behavior for a single reservoir matrix block and its size.

Spontaneous imbibition of water into oil-wet carbonates

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2003
Contrary to sandstone reservoirs, the oil-wetting nature of carbonate reservoirs appears to increase as the reservoir temperature decreases.

Pinning of Water Imbibition Front In Porous Media

MRS Proceedings, 1995
ABSTRACTWe report a study of the dynamics of capillary rise of water in a column of glass beads. The water column height h is measured as a function of time t. Analyzing the late-time data in terms of critical pinning, dh/dt α (P − Pa)β, we find an anomalously large exponent β. A similar measurement for contact line pinning in capillary tubes indicates

Capillary imbibition of water in discrete planar cracks

Construction and Building Materials, 2017
Abstract Knowledge of capillary imbibition of water in distributed microcracks within building materials plays a critical role in assessing and predicting the durability of reinforced concrete structures. This paper focuses on a comprehensive investigation of capillary imbibition of water in discrete planar cracks, involving both theoretical and ...

Improved Spontaneous Imbibition of Water in Reservoir Chalks

IOR 2009 - 15th European Symposium on Improved Oil Recovery, 2009
Alteration of wettability to more water-wet and thereby improvement of spontaneous imbibition of water during sea water injection, has been studied using reservoir core plugs from two fractured chalk fields. Core plugs were prepared by removing easily accessible sulphate. The wettability conditions were characterized using the sulphate wettability test.

Scaling Water-Oil Imbibition in Fractured Reservoirs

1989
This thesis studies the imbibition of oil from fractured reservoir matrix blocks in the absence of gravity effects using a numerical simulator. The rate of capillary imbibition is scaled by a set of dimensionless numbers governed by the physical properties of the matrix blocks, for both incompressible and slightly compressible fluid flow. A new scaling

Evaluation of Gas Saturation During Water Imbibition Experiments

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 2003
Abstract Knowledge of gas saturation history is very important in determining gas recovery from gas reservoirs with water influx. Water imbibition is known to control gas recovery. Spontaneous imbibition experiments have been traditionally employed to determine gas saturation.
