This study discusses the determination of the stabilized flow coefficient, C, in the Rawlins and Schellhardt equation. It is applicable in the reservoir with low porosity and permeability model, usually found in unconventional reservoirs. In determining the flow coefficient, a deliverability test method proposed by Hashem and Kazemi was used during the transient flow period of a gas well. Besides, in determining the deliverability exponent, n, used in the least squared analysis equation derived by Johnston and Lee in the determination of C stabilized so that from each value of n, there will be supporting data for determining stabilized flow coefficient. Finally, the application and previous method will determine the flow coefficient value based on reservoir model time stabilization. Later it compares with the John Lee equation and IPR constructs from the model and John Lee.

The drive to increase the efficiency of processes based on two-phase flow demands the better precision and selection of boundary conditions in the process’ control. The two-phase flow pattern affects the phenomena of momentum, heat, and mass transfer. It becomes necessary to shift from its qualitative to quantitative evaluation. The description of the stationary structure has long been used in structural studies applied to metals and alloys. The description of a gas–liquid two-phase mixture is difficult because it changes in time and space. This paper presents a study of the precise determination of two-phase flow patterns based on stereological parameters analysis. The research area is shown against the flow map proposed by other researchers. The experiment was taken in the thin clear channel with dimensions of W = 50 × H = 1200 × T = 5 mm. The test method is based on the visualization of a two-phase air–water adiabatic flow pattern in the rectangular channel where superficial air velocities ranging from 0.006 to 0.044 m/s and the superficial water velocity ranged from 0.011 to 1.111 m/s. A high-speed camera was used for visualization. Images were analyzed with the use of stereological techniques. The study included the classification of structures according to generally accepted two-phase flow regime nomenclature for upwards co-current gas–liquid flow in a vertical rectangular channel. The result of the research was the determination of the stereological parameters’ changes with reference to the two-phase mixture flow hydrodynamics. The results were presented as waveform fluctuations in the values of stereological factors such as the volume fraction VV, interfacial surface SV, number of objects NV, mean chord l′m and the free distance λ. The description of how these parameters change with changes in phase fluxes is also presented. These waveforms help to distinguish the transient flow regimes, which allow for the automatic adjustment of the process stability. The authors found templates of the stereological parameters’ dependencies for flow pattern recognition. The research demonstrates wide possibilities of stereological methods’ application for the analysis of the two-phase gas–liquid process. The stereological model of two-phase pattern control enables the identification of process disorders.

Abstract This four-part series of papers addresses the problem of systematic determination of the influence of several tire factors on tire treadwear. Both the main effect of each factor and some of their interactive effects are included. The program was also structured to evaluate the influence of some external-to-tire conditions on the relationship of tire factors to treadwear. Part I describes the experimental design used to evaluate the effects on treadwear of generic tire type, aspect ratio, tread pattern (groove or void level), type of pattern (straight rib or block), and tread compound. Construction procedures and precautions used to obtain a valid and functional test method are included. Two guiding principles to be used in the data analyses of Parts II and III are discussed. These are the fractional groove and void concept, to characterize tread pattern geometry, and a demonstration of the equivalence of wear rate for identical compounds on whole tread or multi-section tread tires.
