Until the early 90s, the simulation of fluid flow in oil reservoir basically used the numerical technique of finite differences. Since then, there was a big development in simulation technology based on streamlines, so that nowadays it is being used in several cases and it can represent the physical mechanisms that influence the fluid flow, such as compressibility, capillarity and gravitational segregation. Streamline-based flow simulation is a tool that can help enough in waterflood project management, because it provides important information not available through traditional simulation of finite differences and shows, in a direct way, the influence between injector well and producer well. This work presents the application of a methodology published in literature for optimizing water injection projects in modeling of a Brazilian Potiguar Basin reservoir that has a large number of wells. This methodology considers changes of injection well rates over time, based on information available through streamline simulation. This methodology reduces injection rates in wells of lower efficiency and increases injection rates in more efficient wells. In the proposed model, the methodology was effective. The optimized alternatives presented higher oil recovery associated with a lower water injection volume. This shows better efficiency and, consequently, reduction in costs. Considering the wide use of the water injection in oil fields, the positive outcome of the modeling is important, because it shows a case study of increasing of oil recovery achieved simply through better distribution of water injection rates

Water injection is the most widely used method for supplementary recovery in many oil fields due to various reasons, like the fact that water is an effective displacing agent of low viscosity oils, the water injection projects are relatively simple to establish and the water availability at a relatively low cost. For design of water injection projects is necessary to do reservoir studies in order to define the various parameters needed to increase the effectiveness of the method. For this kind of study can be used several mathematical models classified into two general categories: analytical or numerical. The present work aims to do a comparative analysis between the results presented by flow lines simulator and conventional finite differences simulator; both types of simulators are based on numerical methods designed to model light oil reservoirs subjected to water injection. Therefore, it was defined two reservoir models: the first one was a heterogeneous model whose petrophysical properties vary along the reservoir and the other one was created using average petrophysical properties obtained from the first model. Comparisons were done considering that the results of these two models were always in the same operational conditions. Then some rock and fluid parameters have been changed in both models and again the results were compared. From the factorial design, that was done to study the sensitivity analysis of reservoir parameters, a few cases were chosen to study the role of water injection rate and the vertical position of wells perforations in production forecast. It was observed that the results from the two simulators are quite similar in most of the cases; differences were found only in those cases where there was an increase in gas solubility ratio of the model. Thus, it was concluded that in flow simulation of reservoirs analogous of those now studied, mainly when the gas solubility ratio is low, the conventional finite differences simulator may be replaced by flow lines simulator the production forecast is compatible but the computational processing time is lower.

Neste trabalho abordamos a teoria de Ginzburg-Landau da supercondutividade (teoria GL). Apresentamos suas origens, características e resultados mais importantes. A idéia fundamental desta teoria e descrever a transição de fase que sofrem alguns metais de uma fase normal para uma fase supercondutora. Durante uma transição de fase em supercondutores do tipo II é característico o surgimento de linhas de fluxo magnético em determinadas regiões de tamanho finito chamadas comumente de vórtices. A dinâmica destas estruturas topológicas é de grande interesse na comunidade científica atual e impulsiona incontáveis núcleos de pesquisa na área da supercondutividade. Baseado nisto estudamos como essas estruturas topológicas influenciam em uma transição de fase em um modelo bidimensional conhecido como modelo XY. No modelo XY vemos que os principais responsáveis pela transição de fase são os vórtices (na verdade pares de vórtice-antivórtice). Villain, observando este fato, percebeu que poderia tornar explícita a contribuição desses defeitos topológicos na função de partição do modelo XY realizando uma transformação de dualidade. Este modelo serve como inspiração para a proposta deste trabalho. Apresentamos aqui um modelo baseado em considerações físicas sobre sistemas de matéria condensada e ao mesmo tempo utilizamos um formalismo desenvolvido recentemente na referência [29] que possibilita tornar explícita a contribuição dos defeitos topológicos na ação original proposta em nossa teoria. Após isso analisamos alguns limites clássicos e finalmente realizamos as flutuações quânticas visando obter a expressão completa da função correlação dos vórtices o que pode ser muito útil em teorias de vórtices interagentes (dinâmica de vórtices).

A ferramenta de indução EM é utilizada na perfilagem de poço de prospecção com a finalidade de determinar a concentração de óleo na formação geológica. Formações com camadas que são relativamente de grande espessura já foram bem tratadas, entretanto zonas com camadas finas intercaladas com argila e areia com bom potencial de hidrocarbonetos precisam ser investigadas. Por isso, é necessário melhorar a resolução da sonda de indução para delimitar camadas finas com maior precisão. Teoricamente, se uma sonda de indução apresentar o feixe do campo magnético direcionado transversalmente ao eixo do poço, ela poderá ter um bom potencial para melhorar a resolução vertical das sondagens. Neste trabalho estudamos a geração do campo magnético direcional na forma de um feixe fino através de diferentes combinações de duas bobinas transmissoras (dipolos magnéticos) para determinar um arranjo que apresente uma melhor focalização na perfilagem de indução. Duas configurações com dois transmissores EM apresentam uma região em que só há contribuição da componente radial para a indução magnética: dois dipolos magnéticos paralelos transversais ao eixo do poço e dois dipolos magnéticos anticoaxiais ao eixo do poço. Para estas duas configurações foram analisados os possíveis espaçamentos entre os dois dipolos magnéticos transmissores, verificando-se que quanto mais próximos os dois dipolos magnéticos transmissores mais agrupadas ficam as linhas de fluxo magnético numa direção transversal ao eixo do poço. Conseqüentemente é gerado um feixe fino e direcional, concentrando energia em uma porção de volume estreita a partir dos transmissores, tendo um bom potencial para melhorar a resolução vertical da sonda de indução EM de poço.

The plastic deformation is widely used in the metallurgical market due to its positive factors such as low prices and high speed production. Forming process products are obtained in high quality, both surface quality and mechanical properties. Friction is an importante factor in metal forming. Friction study in metal forming can be accomplished indirectly, such as the ring test of friction. Two samples of different materials being mild steel and copper alloy were used. The results showed the influence of friction in the flow behavior of the deformation of the second phase, as evidenced by standard metallography. It is observed that in the outer regions of the ring, plastic deformation occured in the radial direction. In the central region of the disc deformation occured in the direction of compression and the inner region of the ring flux lines showed a significant deformation in the radial direction towards the center of the ring

Apresenta-se neste trabalho um estudo experimental da dinâmica do fluxo magnético intergranular no cuprato supercondutor Y Ba2Cu3O7 e nos compósitos Y Ba2CU3O7 fi/Ag para várias concentrações de prata. Verificou-se que sob certas condições é possível separar os efeitos da dinâmica do fluxo de Josephson daqueles resultantes da dinâmica de Abrikosov. Através da técnica de medidas de magnetização DC foram obtidas as linhas de depinning inicial e de irreversibilidade magnética em campo magnético aplicado até 120 Oe. O revestimento dos grãos supercondutores aparentemente não afeta a energia de acoplamento dos elos fracos entre os grãos e o potencial de pinning até 16.1 % em peso de prata. A vantagem da mistura da prata é que esta melhora as propriedades mecânicas dos óxidos supercondutores além de melhorar as correntes críticas do sistema. Observamos que o depinning do fluxo de Josephson começa numa temperatura bem definida, dependendo do campo magnético aplicado e gradualmente aumenta com a temperatura até ou muito próximo do limite de irreversibilidade, acima do qual todo o fluxo intergranular (e intragranular) está livre. As linhas de irreversibilidade das nossas amostras podem ser entendidas dentro do modelo do Vidro supercondutor.
