Use of ESP

Recent developments in the oil industry have led to renewed interest in artificial lift methods such as, electrical submersible pumps (ESP’s), gas lift and sucker-rod pump. When the oil is being extracted from the ground is due to the difference among the reservoir and well-bore pressure by producing naturally or using artificial lift mechanisms. In … Read more

Aerofoil

Aeroplanes are one of the main means of transportation in the 21st Century. The main part of the Airplane that enables it to fly is the wings (also known as aerofoil). This essay will examine in great detail about the physical characteristics of the aerofoil and the importance of these parts in enabling the airplane … Read more

Afflux and back water curve

Let us discuss the terms: 1. Afflux and 2. Back water curve and Derive an expression for the length of the back water curve. Whenever an obstruction comes across the width of the channel, the water surface in the upstream side of the obstruction no longer remains parallel to the bed but the depth of … Read more

Seismic noise attenuation using 2D F-X Prediction Design Levinson-Durbin filter mode

Abstract: The Seismic noise attenuation is very important for seismic data interpretation and analysis. In our paper, we propose a 2D F-X Prediction Design Levinson-Durbin filter mode method for2D seismic land data random noise attenuation by applying Design Levinson-Durbin filter The key idea of this paper is to consider that The FXDecon works on each … Read more

Slip forms

During the process of construction, the slip-forms are raised while the concrete is in a plastic state. These are used for the construction of tall structures, e.g., chimney. Slip-forms may be classified as : (i)Straight slip-forms (ii)Tapering slip-forms (iii)Sand slip-forms for special applications. Straight slip-forms are used for silos, straight-chimneys, water towers, etc. Tapering chimneys … Read more

Coatings for increased turbine engine efficiency

Recently used turbines for power generation and aero-jet aircraft engines applications experience incessant efforts towards increasing the thermal efficiency [1]. Greater efficiency and higher output inescapably need to increase the turbine operating temperature, which needs novel methods to overcome the restraints of hot sections materials [2]. Early, before 25 years ago, the increase in the … Read more
