  Construction/Assembling of a Low Cost Adsorption Apparatus for Cored Clay Shales

  By H. Bashir, Y. Wang, A. Abbas

  Abstract: The secret to unlocking these reserves lies in accurate experimental data which in turn depends on the experimental method used. Recently many procedures such as manometric, volumetric and gravimetric have been developed to quantify adsorption. In this paper, we show how to construct/assemble a simple manometric adsorption apparatus for gas adsorption. The setup is inexpensive and can be built easily using part available in university laboratories. Furthermore, it can be …

  Two-Phase Flow Modelling in Clay Rich Shale

  By H. Bashir, Y. Wang, A. Abbas

  Abstract: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have made huge strides lately and are bit by bit turning into a pervasive device in science and engineering. In this paper, we present a new mathematical model, which adequately describes single- and two-phase flow, which considers relative permeability and capillary pressure in water rich clay shale. Furthermore, we implement the two-phase flow model into COMSOL multiphysics software. From the result analysis, it is concluded that …
