Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of mixing technology, in particular to a multi-loop variable flow state mixing system and a carving design and performance evaluation method. Background Art
[0002] The exploration and development of carbonate oil and gas reservoirs in my country is gradually moving towards ultra-deep layers, ultra-high temperatures and ultra-high pressures. It has become a hot spot for deep oil and gas exploration and the main body of oil and gas reserve growth, showing huge potential for oil and gas resource replacement. The engineering geological characteristics of deep marine carbonate oil and gas reservoirs in Sichuan are extremely complex. In recent years, the large-scale acid fracturing process based on gelled acid has been used with good results, and it is expected to further achieve breakthroughs in the exploration and development of deep-layer deep-earth engineering.
[0003] The core of large-scale acid fracturing process lies in the preparation of large amounts of gelling acid. To achieve rapid preparation of large amounts of gelling acid, the acid preparation process must be improved, and the traditional acid preparation machine must be upgraded to a large-scale acid mixing skid / truck. However, the acid mixing truck still fails to solve the problems of uniform mixing, foaming and metering of gelling powder and liquid. As a result, the acid preparation efficiency has not been greatly improved and the acid preparation quality does not meet the design requirements. Therefore, the acid mixing skid / truck has not yet replaced the traditional acid preparation machine.
[0004] The key to solving the problem lies in the design of the buffer tank. Currently, the buffer tanks widely used on site are only designed with stirring function. However, since the agitator is located in the middle of the tank and due to the viscosity of the acid, the rotation flow of the acid in the tank is very uneven, and it is impossible to achieve uniform mixing through one cycle. The time for multiple cycles is not much different from other mixing methods, and the efficiency and quality have not met expectations.
[0005] Publication No.: CN107261975A, discloses a continuous acid mixing equipment, which realizes continuous mixing of acid solution by combining a continuous acid mixing vehicle and a skid-mounted buffer tank. At the same time, by configuring an acid mist removal device in the acid mixing tank, a large amount of acid mist and foam generated during the acid mixing process can be effectively removed, making the operating performance of the whole machine safer.
[0006] This prior art uses a double-chamber double-agitator for mixing, but still has the problem of not being able to achieve uniform mixing through one cycle.
[0007] Announcement No.: CN106246157B, discloses a skid-mounted acid preparation device and an acid preparation method thereof. The vacuum pumping system uses a vacuum pump to evacuate the buffer tank so that the buffer tank is under negative pressure for a long time during the acid preparation operation, providing power for the acid absorption system.
[0008] The purpose of the buffer tank in the prior art is inconsistent with the present invention.
[0009] Publication No.: CN115872504A, discloses an integrated magnetic coagulation and sedimentation device for sewage treatment. When in use, sewage is introduced into a reaction tank, and the sewage passes through a first reaction chamber and a second reaction chamber in sequence. A flocculant is added to the first reaction chamber, and magnetic powder is added to the second reaction chamber. The first stirring mechanism and the second stirring mechanism are continuously used for stirring to fully mix the flocculant and sewage as well as the magnetic powder and sewage.
[0010] This prior art belongs to a similar field and uses multiple circuits and multiple agitators for mixing, but still has the problem of not being able to achieve uniform mixing through one cycle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0097] Streamlines in the tank: Liquid enters from the liquid inlet 1, flows downward in the space between the front wall of the tank cavity and the first upper baffle 2, and enters the first arc groove 18. In the first arc groove 18, the liquid is affected by the flow pattern and fully mixed; in the first arc groove 18, the liquid moving upward eventually leaves the first arc groove 18 and enters the space between the first upper baffle 2 and the first lower baffle 9; the liquid flows upward in the space between the first upper baffle 2 and the first lower baffle 9, passes through the first lower baffle 9, and enters the space between the first lower baffle 9 and the second upper baffle 5; the liquid flows upward in the space between the first upper baffle 2 and the first lower baffle 9, and enters the space between the first lower baffle 9 and the second upper baffle 5; The space between the baffle plate 9 and the second upper baffle plate 5 moves downward and enters the second arc groove 19, where the liquid is affected by the flow patterns and is fully mixed; the liquid moving upward in the second arc groove 19 eventually enters the space between the second upper baffle plate 5 and the second lower baffle plate 10; the liquid moves upward in the space between the second upper baffle plate 5 and the second lower baffle plate 10, passes through the second lower baffle plate 10, and enters the space between the second lower baffle plate 10 and the rear wall of the tank body cavity; the liquid moves downward in the space between the second lower baffle plate 10 and the rear wall of the tank body cavity, and is eventually discharged from the drain port 13.
[0098] The tank is rectangular in shape and has a volume no greater than 15m 3 , the inner wall and openings are treated with heavy anti-corrosion.
[0099] Among them, the liquid inlet 1 is arranged at the front end of the upper wall of the tank body, and is designed to be 6 in a single row; the discharge port 13 is arranged at the lower rear end of the side wall of the tank body, and 3 are arranged on each side wall, for a total of 6; the liquid inlet 1 and the discharge port 13 are opened or closed according to the acid preparation demand to control the acid preparation speed; the acid mist neutralization port 8 is connected to the acid mist removal device through a channel, and the acid mist neutralization port 8 plays a role in connecting with the atmosphere to balance the air pressure, which can ensure that the liquid enters the tank body smoothly and discharges the liquid from the tank.
[0100] The baffle and the stirring tank are combined to form a downward and upward circulation channel, two stirring tanks and four baffles form four circulation channels, and inspection holes are arranged on the upper wall of the tank body, and each channel corresponds to an inspection hole.
[0101] Among them, the first upper baffle plate 2 is in a state of being straight up and bent down, and the arc of the lower part of the first upper baffle plate 2 is the same as the curvature of the front arc on the center plane of the first arc groove 18; the second upper baffle plate 5 is in a state of being straight up and bent down, and the arc of the lower part of the second upper baffle plate 5 is the same as the curvature of the front arc on the center plane of the second arc groove 19.
[0102] Among them, the first lower baffle plate 9 and the second lower baffle plate 10 are in a vertical state, and the height of the first lower baffle plate 9 and the second lower baffle plate 10 is 2 / 3 to 5 / 6 of the height of the tank body.
[0103] Among them, the flow pattern carving plays a role in accelerating the flow of liquid. The flow pattern carving is a spiral pattern. The carving height and depth determine the coverage of the disturbance. The carving height can match the carving depth, that is, the two are equal, and the size is 1% of the tank wall thickness. The spacing of the carvings needs to be small enough to ensure the disturbance of the entire tank inner wall, but not too small to avoid fluid retention and dead zone. Therefore, the carving spacing is taken as 5%-10% of the radius of the circular ring at the top of the arc groove.
[0104] Specifically, the total height of the flow pattern pattern surface is h, the flow pattern pattern has N patterns, h / a0<N<h / 2a0, and the pattern spacing is a n , a0 is a constant, n is a coefficient, then the groove spacing conforms to the following formula:
[0105] ;
[0106] ;
[0107] Let a0=0.05r0, 5% of the radius of the circular ring at the upper end of the arc groove, then the following formula is satisfied:
[0108] .
[0109] Specifically, a first dividing groove 14 is arranged at the center of the first arc groove 18, and a second dividing groove 15 is arranged at the center of the second arc groove 19, and the first dividing groove 14 and the second dividing groove 15 are parallel to the first lower baffle plate 9; the flow pattern engraving located in front of the first dividing groove 14 in the first arc groove 18 rotates downward, and the flow pattern engraving located in front of the second dividing groove 15 in the second arc groove 19 rotates downward, and the flow pattern is downward; the flow pattern engraving located behind the first dividing groove 14 in the first arc groove 18 rotates upward, and the flow pattern engraving located behind the second dividing groove 15 in the second arc groove 19 rotates upward, and the flow pattern is upward; the first base 11 is provided with a first drain port 16 at the bottom of the first dividing groove 14, and the second base 12 is provided with a second drain port 17 at the bottom of the second dividing groove 15.
[0110] More specifically, the first agitator 3, the second agitator 6, the upward swirling flow pattern carvings, and the downward swirling flow pattern carvings all rotate clockwise; when the liquid flow enters the separation groove from the downward swirling flow pattern carvings, a part of it moves upward through the separation groove, and a part of it moves upward through the upward swirling flow pattern carvings; when the liquid flow enters the separation groove from the upward swirling flow pattern carvings, a part of it moves upward, and a part of it moves downward. The downward moving liquid flow interferes with the upward moving liquid flow in the center of the arc groove, thereby enhancing the mixing effect. At the same time, the liquid flow at the bottom of the arc groove is rotated upward from the downward swirling flow pattern carvings. The rotational change can enhance the scouring effect of the liquid flow on the bottom of the groove and reduce precipitation; at the same time, the liquid that has not entered the flow pattern groove passes through the first arc groove 18 and the second arc groove 19 under the action of the first agitator 3 and the second agitator 6, and changes the direction of the liquid flow under the guidance of the first upper baffle plate 2, the first lower baffle plate 9, the second upper baffle plate 5, and the second lower baffle plate 10. The liquid flow direction is not exactly the same as the liquid flow direction in the flow pattern groove, forming shear turbulence and enhancing the mixing effect; the drain port is used to empty the arc groove and discharge the sediment in the arc groove during cleaning and maintenance.
[0111] Furthermore, the tank is provided with a liquid level control system, which includes an external liquid level gauge and a built-in radar liquid level gauge. The external liquid level gauge is used for on-site inspectors to directly see the liquid level, and the built-in radar liquid level gauge is electrically connected to the acid distribution system to send out liquid level information, which is convenient for the acid distribution system to control the overall displacement and set a safe liquid level position. It should be noted that the external liquid level gauge and radar liquid level gauge themselves belong to the prior art and can be purchased, and those skilled in the art are clear about this.

[0114] S1. Establishment of basic physical model:
[0115] The dynamics of agitators are usually described by turbulence models. Combining parameters such as stirring speed, fluid viscosity, stirring power, etc., the following basic formula is used to establish the dynamic model:
[0116] ;
[0117] P is the stirring power, W;
[0118] N p is a dimensionless power number that depends on the type of stirring and the fluid properties;
[0119] ρ is the fluid density, kg / m 3 ;
[0120] N is the stirrer speed, rps;
[0121] D is the stirrer diameter, m;
[0122] S2. Geometric parameters of flow pattern:
[0123] Engraving depth: affects the intensity of fluid disturbance. Too large a depth may cause a dead zone, while too small a depth may not cause sufficient disturbance.
[0124] Engraving width: The width determines the size of the channel through which the fluid passes through the engraving, affecting the shear stress and flow velocity;
[0125] Engraving spacing: Too large a spacing may lead to uneven flow, while too small a spacing may increase manufacturing difficulty;
[0126] These parameters affect the stirring efficiency and the shear stress of the fluid; in order to find the best combination of parameters, the following formula is used.
[0127] S3, shear stress formula, fluid velocity field:
[0128] The geometric parameters of the flow pattern affect the shear stress τ, which can be estimated by the following formula:
[0129] ;
[0130] τ is the shear stress, Pa;
[0131] μ is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid, Pa·s;
[0132] is the velocity gradient, which is determined by the geometric parameters of the flow pattern;
[0133] The greater the shear stress, the easier it is to suspend solids and prevent the sedimentation of insoluble substances;
[0134] Fluid velocity field:
[0135] Model fluid flow using the Navier-Stokes equations:
[0136] ;
[0137] is the fluid velocity vector, m / s;
[0138] P is the fluid pressure, Pa;
[0139] μ is the dynamic viscosity in Pa·s;
[0140] is an external force, such as gravity, N.
[0141] S4. Simulation design steps:
[0142] The geometry of the flow pattern will change the fluid velocity field, so the velocity gradient and shear stress distribution need to be analyzed through simulation tools;
[0143] Build a model and use simulation software (such as Ansys Fluent) to build a geometric model of the flow pattern grooves on the inner wall of the mixing tank, set the groove depth, width and spacing, and define the material and physical properties of the agitator, tank body, grooves and liquid;
[0144] Meshing: Meshing in the fluid domain to ensure that the mesh in the flow pattern carving area is fine enough to capture the disturbance of the fluid at the flow pattern carving area;
[0145] Set boundary conditions, set the stirrer speed N, the density ρ and viscosity μ of the liquid, and the boundary conditions of the mixing tank. The geometric shape of the flow pattern will serve as the wall boundary condition to affect the fluid flow;
[0146] Run the simulation, solve the Navier-Stokes equations through CFD simulation, analyze the fluid velocity field, shear stress distribution, and fluid disturbance, and find the optimal flow pattern geometry parameters through flow field distribution;
[0147] Optimization design,The geometric parameters of the flow pattern are optimized according to the simulation results.,The goal is to ensure uniform flow, sufficient shear stress to suspend insoluble substances, and no obvious dead zone in the flow field.
[0148] Embodiment 3:
[0149] This embodiment provides a method for evaluating the contribution of flow pattern carving to mixing:
[0150] F1. Flow pattern carving increases the shear stress of the liquid near the tank wall. The wall friction coefficient C can be used to calculate the effect of flow pattern carving on shear stress. f and the flow gradient:
[0151] ;
[0152] τ w is the wall shear stress, Pa;
[0153] C f is the wall friction coefficient, which is related to the geometry, depth, width and other parameters of the flow pattern;
[0154] ρ is the fluid density, kg / m³;
[0155] v is the flow velocity in the flow pattern engraving area, m / s;
[0156] The greater the depth and width of the groove, the greater the wall friction coefficient C f The larger it is, the greater the shear stress is, which means that more energy is consumed in the flow pattern area and the liquid mixing effect is enhanced.
[0157] F2. The influence of flow pattern carving on turbulence can be measured by introducing turbulence intensity I:
[0158] ;
[0159] u′ is the RMS value of velocity fluctuation, which is proportional to the depth and width of the groove;
[0160] U is the average flow velocity, m / s;
[0161] The increase in turbulence intensity indicates that the liquid mixing effect is enhanced and can effectively prevent particle deposition; the depth and width of the grooves directly affect the length scale of turbulence. t , l t ∝ Engraving depth × Engraving width;
[0162] The increase in turbulence scale means an increase in the degree of fluid mixing, but it also increases energy loss. Therefore, a balance needs to be struck between turbulence enhancement and energy consumption when designing the geometric parameters of flow patterns.
[0163] F4. In order to prevent particles from settling in the flow pattern, the particle settling velocity v s The engraving depth design is appropriate by comparing it with the fluid flow rate. The particle settling velocity can be estimated using the Stokes formula:
[0164] ;
[0165] r is the particle radius, m;
[0166] ρ p is the particle density, kg / m³;
[0167] ρ is the liquid density, kg / m³;
[0168] g is the acceleration due to gravity;
[0169] μ is the fluid viscosity, Pa·s.
[0170] F4. After the flow pattern is introduced, the increase in the overall mixing power of the mixing tank can be calculated by the increased shear stress. The total mixing power P can be expressed as:

[0191] Embodiment 5:
[0192] Based on Example 4, this embodiment provides a method for using a multi-circuit variable flow state mixing system, comprising the following steps:
[0193] High-viscosity premixed acid, clean water and additives enter the tank from the liquid inlet 1 through the mixing pipe;
[0194] The mixed liquid is affected by the downward swirling grooves in the space between the front wall of the inner cavity of the tank body and the first upper baffle plate 2, and is sucked by the first stirrer 3, so that the mixed liquid accelerates the downward swirling motion;
[0195] The mixed liquid in the space between the first upper baffle plate 2 and the first lower baffle plate 9 is partially affected by the upward swirl pattern, partially affected by the downward swirl pattern, and partially affected by the lifting effect of the first agitator 3. The mixed liquid with different flow directions generates turbulence, thereby enhancing the mixing effect.
[0196] The mixed liquid is affected by the downward swirling grooves in the space between the second upper baffle plate 5 and the second lower baffle plate 10, and is sucked by the second agitator 6, so that the mixed liquid accelerates the downward swirling motion;
[0197] The mixed liquid in the space between the second upper baffle plate 5 and the second lower baffle plate 10 is partially affected by the upper swirl flow grooves, partially affected by the lower swirl flow grooves, and partially affected by the suction of the second agitator 6. The mixed liquid with different flow directions generates turbulence, thereby enhancing the mixing effect.
[0198] The mixed liquid is discharged from the liquid discharge port 13 after passing through the second lower baffle 10. During the movement of the mixed liquid, the high-viscosity pre-mixed acid, clean water and additives are fully mixed;
[0199] When the acid liquid discharge volume is too large, adjust the parameters of the acid dispensing system to control the discharge volume. During the acid dispensing period, the liquid level control system continuously sends the liquid level information to the acid dispensing system to avoid acid liquid overflow.
[0200] After the acid preparation is completed, the system is emptied through the first drain port 16 and the second drain port 17 to discharge the sediment and perform maintenance and cleaning.
