Abstract
Continuing studies on combustion cell reactor experiments are expected to promote a better understanding of the problems and mechanisms involved in laboratory investigations and field applications of the in-situ combustion process for enhanced oil recovery. A new high-pressure flow reactor has been designed for analyzing the specific features of in situ combustion in consolidated core materials (real core) at elevated pressures. The purpose of this facility is to enable physical simulation of the in-situ combustion process and air injection process for oil recovery at reservoir conditions of temperature and pressure. This paper describes in detail the high-pressure flow cell reactor facility in terms of specific equipment operation and features. Furthermore, the results of some experiments are presented.
