When the can's valve is opened, the liquid is forced out of a small hole and emerges as an aerosol or mist.

The mechanics of MEOR at a molecular level are really quite simple, but must be thoroughly understood to assess both the efficiency and the efficacy of the process. The microbes in MEOR are simply hydrocarbon-utilizing, non-pathogenic microorganisms which are endemic to, and are naturally-occurring in petroleum reservoirs. What this means is, they naturally exist in reservoirs, are safe for plants, animals and humans, and ingest hydrocarbons as a food source which they metabolize. As a result of this "digestive" process, they then excrete bio-products such as alcohols, gases, acids, surfactants and polymers, which because of their origin are all natural and non-toxic.... Changes in the Crude [:] The gases excreted by the microorganisms go immediately into solution in the crude, making it a solution gas drive reservoir once again. The gases, solvents and weak acids cause a reduction in the viscosity and the pour point of the crude, and an increase in its API(or specific) gravity. These three changes cause the oil to be thinner and to flow more freely. Some of the microorganisms inhibit the activity of SRB's, or sulfate-reducing bacteria, which also occur naturally in reservoirs, but cause corrosion in metal parts and produce the deadly H2S(hydrogen sulfide) gas. Changes in the Reservoir Rock [:] The surfactants, acids and solvents clean out the paraffin wax and the heavy crude depositions in the pores of the rock improving the permeability and partially restoring the original porosity of the rock. The polymers help modify the permeability of the rock by reducing the size of the molecules of reservoir fluids, and help prevent and control water-coning problems. The acids, solvents, alcohols and surfactants remove metal traces from the poral throats of the rock, helping to restore the original porosity and permeability of the reservoir rock. 3, record 15, English, - microbial%20enhanced%20oil%20recovery

Pour qu'un micro-organisme soit commercialement utilisable, il doit être à même de survivre dans les conditions sévères de température, de salinité et de pression. Une fois dans le puits, le micro-organisme produirait soit un gaz pour remettre le puits sous pression, soit des agents tensio-actifs ou des émulsifiants pour diminuer la viscosité du pétrole.

When specifying a mass flow control system, the first consideration is whether the process will take place at constant system pressure, constant throughput, and/or predetermined gas flow ratio. Another important consideration is whether system control will be automatic(microprocessor) or manual(setpoint potentiometers).... There are three major state-of-the-art systems that can be identified. The first uses a flowmeter(s)... as the primary transducer(s) to monitor mass flow. Using this format, a signal is compared in control circuitry to a setpoint signal. This generates an error voltage which is used to drive a valve, thus continuously controlling the flow. The second major type of system uses a pressure transducer as the primary sensing element. System pressure is held either constant or varied at a predetermined rate by controlling the mass flow rate of process gases. This leads to a third type of system that slaves valves and flowmeters to the primary sensing. 1, record 22, English, - mass%20flow%20controller

In electrical power generation, a system in which a gas turbine drives a generator to produce electricity, and the hot exhaust... from the gas turbine is used to produce steam in a boiler, which is used to drive a steam turbine to drive a generator(conventional cycle) to produce electricity... Thus, electricity is produced by a gas turbine and a steam turbine. A combined cycle might consist of a conventional cycle plus a topping cycle or bottoming cycle or both. 1, record 27, English, - combined%20cycle

Mode de production d'électricité utilisant à la fois l'énergie mécanique directe d'une turbine à gaz et l'énergie thermique de ses gaz d'échappement, par récupération de leur chaleur dans un échangeur; cette chaleur sert à produire de la vapeur qui est ensuite détendue dans une autre turbine. Les deux turbines entraînent chacune un alternateur avec un rendement global qui peut atteindre 55 %. 2, record 27, French, - cycle%20combin%C3%A9

L'accroissement de la puissance unitaire des turbines, qui atteint aujourd'hui les 225 mégawatts, favorise le développement du cycle combiné pour la production d'électricité à partir de gaz. Une centrale à cycle combiné occupe 40 % d'espace en moins qu'une centrale au fioul ou au charbon, elle consomme moins d'énergie primaire et pollue moins. Enfin, sa conception modulaire lui permet de suivre plus étroitement l'évolution de la demande. 2, record 27, French, - cycle%20combin%C3%A9

An arrangement in which the turbine extracts just sufficient energy from high pressure gas to drive the compressor and where the gases leaving the turbine will still be at a pressure above atmospheric and can be expanded in a propelling nozzle to produce a high velocity jet.

Gas turbine engines for aircraft come in many types and sizes, each of which has its advantages and also its limitations. The most common type is the uncomplicated turbojet, similar to the typical jet engine described earlier. Because it has no added features such as a fan, propeller, of free turbine, this kind of turbojet is sometimes referred to as straight jet engine.

Combined Cycle Power Generation... A combined cycle process combines two different power cycles in such a manner that the combined cycle operates over a larger temperature range than does either of the individual cycles. This produces a higher overall thermal efficiency....
