Using downhole annular electromagnetic flow measurement to obtain annular flow in real-time is a foundation of microflow control drilling technology. The existing annular flow electromagnetic measurement method based on low-frequency rectangular excitation is affected by slurry interference and formation fluid invasion, which results in large noise generated on the electrode output signal. These noise causes the instability of the flow measurement system output and lower accuracy. Double-frequency rectangular wave excitation has the advantages of excellent zero-point stability attributed to low-frequency rectangular wave excitation and fast response speed with great ability to suppress slurry interference. First, the double-frequency rectangular wave excitation for annular flow electromagnetic measurement is researched, and its corresponding electromagnetic induction signal process is investigated. In order to verify the feasibility of downhole annular electromagnetic flow measurement, a flow verification platform for comparison of standard and detected parameters is established for simulation experiment, and the ability to suppress slurry interference and response speed of the technology in downhole slurry flow measurement are analyzed. The test results show that the downhole annular electromagnetic flow measurement based on double-frequency rectangular wave excitation can not only satisfy the requirements of regular electromagnetic flow measurement but also suppress the annular slurry interference effectively.

Using the downhole annular flow measurement system to get real-time information of downhole annular flow is the core and foundation of downhole microflux control drilling technology. The research work of electromagnetic flowmeter in recent years creates a challenge to the design of downhole annular flow measurement. This paper proposes a design and optimization of annular flow electromagnetic measurement system for drilling engineering based on the finite element method. Firstly, the annular flow measuring and optimization principle are described. Secondly, a simulation model of an annular flow electromagnetic measurement system with two pairs of coil is built based on the fundamental equation of electromagnetic flowmeter by COMSOL. Thirdly, simulations of the structure of excitation system of the measurement system are carried out, and simulations of the size of the electrode’s radius are also carried out based on the optimized structure, and then all the simulation results are analyzed to evaluate the optimization effect based on the evaluation indexes. The simulation results show that optimized shapes of the excitation system and electrode size can yield a better performance in the annular flow measurement.

The method of matched eigenfunction expansions is applied in this paper to obtain the hydrodynamic coefficients of a pair of coaxial cylinders, each of which can have independent movement. The geometry idealizes a device for extracting ocean wave energy in the heave mode. The effects of geometric variations and the interaction between cylinders on the hydrodynamic properties are discussed. Analytical expressions for the low-frequency behavior of the hydrodynamic coefficients are also derived. The wave-exciting force on the bottom surface of either one of the cylinders is derived using the radiation solutions, with a generalized form of the Haskind relation developed for this geometry. The presented results are immediately applicable to examine free motion of coaxial cylinders in a wave field.

Abstract Observations of ocean bottom low-frequency noise and surface environmental data over a period of 27 days in the northern Atlantic during the SAMSON and SWADE experiments reveal how closely related the noise is to meteorological conditions. Double-frequency microseisms produced by nonlinear interactions of storm-induced surface gravity waves are especially evident in the frequency band 0.16 to 0.3 Hz and show a high variability in both amplitude and peak frequencies. Bifurcated at times, the peak that characterizes the microseism band contains local and distant or “teleseismic” components, which are generated at different locations. Weather and storm fetch appear to be the major contributions to the size and shape of microseism spectra. Storm development on the sea surface is associated with progressively lower microseism frequencies along with a concurrent increase in amplitude. The single-frequency microseism peak is a continuous feature and is observed to portray the same time-dependent spectral characteristics as the portion of the double-frequency peak associated with distant storms. Coherence studies confirm that both peaks (single and teleseismic double) originate at a distant source. These peaks are generated at roughly the same location with some storm component over the coastline.

Wall Shear

Wall shear stress measurements employing a hot-film sensor along with laser Doppler velocimetry measurements of the axial and tangential velocity and turbulence profiles in a pulsating turbulent pipe flow are presented. Time-mean and phase-averaged results are derived from measurements performed at pulsation frequencies ${\it\omega}^{+}={\it\omega}{\it\nu}/\bar{u}_{{\it\tau}}^{2}$ over the range of 0.003–0.03, covering the low-frequency, intermediate and quasi-laminar regimes. In addition to the base case of a single pulsation imposed on the mean flow, the study also investigates the flow response when two pulsations are superimposed simultaneously. The measurements from the base case show that, when the pulsation belongs to the quasi-laminar regime, the oscillating flow tends towards a laminar state in which the velocity approaches the purely viscous Stokes solution with a low level of turbulence. For ${\it\omega}^{+}<0.006$, the oscillating flow is turbulent and exhibits a region with a logarithmic velocity distribution and a collapse of the turbulence intensities, similar to the time-averaged counterparts. In the low-frequency regime, the oscillating wall shear stress is shown to be directly proportional to the Stokes length normalized in wall units $l_{s}^{+}~(=\sqrt{2/{\it\omega}^{+}})$, as predicted by quasi-steady theory. The base case measurements are used as a reference when evaluating the data from the double-frequency case and the oscillating quantities are shown to be close to superpositions from the base case. The previously established view that the time-averaged quantities are unaffected by the imposition of small-amplitude pulsed unsteadiness is shown to hold also when two pulsations are superposed on the mean flow.

The Difference

AbstractVisual perception is not instantaneous; the perceptual representation of our environment builds up over time. This can strongly affect our responses to visual stimuli. Here, we study the temporal dynamics of visual processing by analyzing the time course of priming effects induced by the well-known Ebbinghaus illusion. In slower responses, Ebbinghaus primes produce effects in accordance with their perceptual appearance. However, in fast responses, these effects are reversed. We argue that this dissociation originates from the difference between early feedforward-mediated gist of the scene processing and later feedback-mediated more elaborate processing. Indeed, our findings are well explained by the differences between low-frequency representations mediated by the fast magnocellular pathway and high-frequency representations mediated by the slower parvocellular pathway. Our results demonstrate the potentially dramatic effect of response speed on the perception of visual illusions specifically and on our actions in response to objects in our visual environment generally.

With the rapid development of petroleum exploitation industry, vibrating screen actuated with a single frequency is unsuitable to separate cuttings from drilling fluid, since it usually results in screen blocking. Hence, for solving the above-mentioned problem, tri-motor excitation with double-frequency in far resonance system is introduced. This paper aims to explore the self-synchronization mechanism of the proposed system. First, dynamic equation is established according to physical model of the system. Then, displacement response of the system in steady state is obtained with dynamic formulas. Subsequently, synchronous condition among the three exciters is determined by small parameters method, and criterion of synchronous stability among the three exciters is derived by Poincare-Lyapunov method. Finally, in light of the differential motion equation, Runge-Kutta principle is assigned to validate the reliability of self-synchronous theory and the stability of the double-frequency system. The results indicate that electromagnetic torques of low-frequency motors are dynamically antisymmetric in synchronous operation, and synchronous ability of the system is determined by the mass ratio among the rotors. In addition, stable phase difference among the rotors is significantly influenced by the structural parameters of the system. And this study will be helpful for the improvement of separation technology.
