Wetting of anisotropic sinusoidal surfaces - experimental and numerical study of directional spreading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Directional wettability, i.e. variation of wetting properties depending on the surface orientation, can be achieved by anisotropic surface texturing. A new high precision process can produce homogeneous sinusoidal surfaces (in particular parallel grooves)

Wettability of Tight Sandstone Reservoir and Its Impacts on the Oil Migration and Accumulation: A Case Study of Shahejie Formation in Dongying Depression, Bohai Bay Basin

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The migration and accumulation of oil in tight sandstone reservoirs are mainly controlled by capillary force. Due to the small pore radius and complex pore structure of tight sandstone reservoirs, the capillary force is very sensitive to wettability, so ...

Analyzing the wettability changes of rocks in various states of core plugs

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Нефть и газ
Current core plugs preparation standards for laboratory studies are developed for water-wet reservoirs and do not consider other types of wettability. Researching how different core preparation methods affect laboratory studies and wettability changes is

Rayleigh and depinning instabilities of forced liquid ridges on heterogeneous substrates

open access: yes, 2011
Depinning of two-dimensional liquid ridges and three-dimensional drops on an inclined substrate is studied within the lubrication approximation. The structures are pinned to wetting heterogeneities arising from variations of the strength of the short ...
