    Experimental in Investigating of Automated Bottom Hole Pressure Control Drilling (MPD)

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mohammadi, Moslem (Author) ; Ghazanfari, Mohammad Hossein (Supervisor) ; Jamshidi, Saeed (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    MPD technique manages drilling pressure to keep bottom hole Pressure balanced in the well. The objective to this studs, is to approximate the well pressure to formation pressure to prevent entry of fluid into the well. MPD is a new method drilling in which, driller controls the annulus pressure in order prevent drilling problems. the circulating fluids system employed by MPD technology is more akin to that of a pressure vessel. In this thesis, using in laboratory-made machine, reacts with sudden changes in pressure at the bottom hole in the shortest possible time. Basically, this system is a system where well bore pressure management is obtained by adjusting the pressures along the well bore... 

    Comparative analysis of hydrate formation pressure applying cubic equations of state (eos), artificial neural network (ann) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis)

    , Article International Journal of Thermodynamics ; Volume 15, Issue 2 , 2012 , Pages 91-101 ; 13019724 (ISSN) Zeinali, N ; Saber, M ; Ameri, A ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The objective of this work is making comparison between thermodynamic models and data-driven techniques accuracy in prediction of hydrate formation pressure as a function of temperature and composition of gas mixtures. The Peng-Robinson (PR) and Patel-Teja (PT) equations of state are used for thermodynamic modeling and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) are used as data-driven models. The capability of each method is evaluated by comparison with the experimental data collected from literature. It is shown that there is a good agreement between thermodynamic modeling and the experimental data in most of the cases; however, the prediction... 

    Pressureless sintering of ZrB 2 ceramics codoped with TiC and graphite

    , Article International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials ; Volume 81 , 2019 , Pages 189-195 ; 02634368 (ISSN) Khoeini, M ; Nemati, A ; Zakeri, M ; Shahedi Asl, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    In this research, the pressureless sintering of ZrB 2 composites were studied to obtain the highest densification and investigate the effects of TiC (2–10% wt) and graphite (1–2% wt) additives on the sinterability. The results showed that by adding TiC, the porosity and water absorption of the samples decreased, resulting in an increase in the density of the samples up to ~98% of the theoretical density. The addition of graphite and TiC reduced the surface oxide layers, improved the density and prevented the grain growth. The graphite additive reacted with B 2 O 3 and ZrO 2 and allowed the system to achieve a complete densification at 2000 °C. Both TiC and graphite additives were completely... 

    Mesoscopic rheological modeling of drilling fluids: Effects of the electrolyte

    Abstract
    Drilling fluid is a complex fluid, including base fluid and other materials, carrying out the vital functions during drilling operation such as cutting transport and controlling formation pressure. In order to optimize performance of a drilling process, a reliable rheological model is required in the computation of fluid flow dynamics. Time-independent Generalized Newtonian formulation are the most common models for describing the rheological behavior of drilling fluids due to its simplicity and ease of use, in spite the fact that they are not able to predict the normal stresses and could not consider effects of active components on the rheological behavior of the drilling fluid and also...
