Core Permeability Calculation for Oil Flow

The document outlines a homework assignment focused on calculating the core permeability (k) for oil flow through a cylindrical core sample using Darcy's Law. Given parameters include fluid viscosity, core dimensions, pressure drop, and flow rate. Additionally, it requires constructing the relationship between pressure drop and flow rate for varying flow rates from 0.05 to 0.5 cm³/s.

Homework

Determine the core permeability (k) for oil flow through a cylindrical
core sample, given the following data:

Fluid viscosity, µ= 10 cP ; • Core length, L = 8.5 cm; • Core radius, r = 3


cm; Pressure drop, \Delta P = 10 atm; • Flow rate, Q = 0.05 cm3/s

Assume steady-state, laminar flow, and use Darcy’s Law to determine


the permeability of the core sample. Also, construct the relationship
between pressure drop (ΔP) and flow rate (Q) for flow rates ranging
from 0.05 to 0.5 cm³/s using the same equation.
