Modern Bitumen Oil Mixture Models in Ashalchinsky Field with Low-Viscosity Solvent at Various Temperatures and Solvent Concentrations

Abstract

The article analyzes the modern theory and practice of pipeline transport of bituminous oil together with low-viscosity solvent. In addition, a detailed analysis of the rheological models of non-Newtonian fluids is carried out, which establishes a number of assumptions on the rheology model selection algorithm currently in use (limited number of rheological models, variability in model coefficient assignment, etc.). Ways of their elimination are proposed. Dependencies for determination of the dynamic viscosity coefficient of binary oil mixtures are investigated. Calculation of the parameters of the bituminous oil mixture with solvent is considered. Complex experimental studies on rheology mixture models of bituminous oil and solvent on the example of the Ashalchinsky field (Russia, Tatarstan) in a wide range of temperatures and concentrations of the solvent are conducted. A two-dimensional field of rheological models of the oil mixture is constructed, which makes it possible to determine the rheological model of the pumped oil mixture depending on the solvent concentration and the temperature of the mixture. Formulas for forecasting the rheological properties of the oil mixture on the basis of statistical processing of the results of experimental studies are theoretically substantiated. It is proven that the viscosity of binary oil mixtures in the Newtonian fluid field should be determined by a modified Arrhenius equation. The proposed models with a high degree of accuracy describe the rheological properties of the oil mixture. It is shown that in the case of complex mixtures, not one rheological model should be applied, but their hierarchy should be established depending on the solvent concentration and temperature.

Current problems of water intake from Amudarya without rest and measures to improve them

“…The development of a pioneer trench should be carried out at a time when there is little water (September-April), that is, at a time when the channel is least silenced with deposition. The length, width and depth of the pioneer ditch should be determined depending on the location of the intake channels, the point of intake of the river without a dam and the low water period of the river [16]. When conducting experimental studies, the curve of gravity parameters of the flow in the right direction does not choose the number of stvors 3, taking into account the complexity of the dynamics of motion of the flow in the opposite direction.…”

Usage of irrigation elements by means of water-efficient technology in irrigating intensive apple gardens through soil and dynamics of seeping moisture

“…The structural scheme of the in-soil irrigation element mode working part and its main parameters work in the following order: the in-soil irrigation system is made of polyethylene pipes and includes water storage, water purification, water supply, water distribution, and irrigation parts. Having been highly dependable on the location of the working parts of the system, the type and number of elements included in the system may differ from other ones [17][18][19][20][21].…”
