DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-3 A core displacement device shown includes a micro pump 1 and a container group 4 installed on the left side of the micro pump 1;

[0024] A microscope 8 is provided on the right side of the container group 4;

[0025] A microscopic model 13 is provided on the lower side of the microscope 8;

[0026] A data processor 10 is provided on the right side of the micro model 13. A suction port 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the right end of the micro model 13 near the upper side to connect with an external vacuum pump. A fixed head 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the right end of the micro model 13 near the lower side. A connector 16 is screwed on the circular outer wall of the fixed head 19. First, the suction port 14 is connected to the external vacuum pump and the micro model 13 is sucked into a vacuum state for two hours. Then, the saturated formation water inside the container group 4 is used with the configured simulated displacement formation water to establish the bound water saturation and stand for twenty-four hours. The crude oil in the micro model 13 is displaced with injected water until the residual oil is formed. The chemical agent is used to displace the residual oil. During the displacement process, the microscope 8 is used to take pictures, the startup process and distribution of the residual oil are collected in real time, the flow process and various phenomena in the experiment are recorded, and the photographed data are transmitted to the data processor 10 for research and analysis.

[0027] A leak-proof pad 18 is arranged between the connecting head 16 and the fixed head 19, a fixing ring a20 is fixedly connected to the leftmost side of the circular outer wall of the fixed head 19, a fixing ring b22 is screwed on the circular outer wall of the connecting head 16 near the left side, and a film 15 is fixedly connected between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22. During the vacuum pumping process of the microscopic model 13, the leak-proof pad 18 can fill the gap between the connecting head 16 and the fixed head 19, and during the subsequent experiments, if gas circulation occurs in the microscopic model 13, gas leakage will occur and the film 15 between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22 will bulge, so as to alert the experimenters to carry out maintenance.

[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a support plate 21 is fixedly connected between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22 and located at the lower side of the film 15 to maintain the surface tension of the film 15, and a plurality of vertical through-holes 17 are equidistantly provided inside the upper outer wall of the support plate 21 to allow gas to circulate and control the state of the film 15, and threads 23 are provided on the circular inner wall of the lower end of the fixing ring b22 and the circular outer wall of the connecting head 16, and the two threads 23 are screwed together to limit the position between the fixing ring b22 and the connecting head 16.

[0029] When the gas enters between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22 through the leak-proof pad 18, the film 15 will be inflated through the opening 17 opened on the support plate 21 to alert the experimenter of the gas leakage. When installing between the connecting head 16 and the fixing head 19, the connecting head 16 is inserted into the interior of the fixing ring b22 and rotated clockwise. Under the action of the thread 23, the connecting head 16 and the fixing ring b22 are screwed together for connection and fixation.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, the film 15 is attached to the surface of the support plate 21 when there is no air between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22, and the film 15 is away from the surface of the support plate 21 when there is air between the fixing ring a20 and the fixing ring b22.

[0031] Whether the interior of the microscopic model 13 is in a vacuum environment is determined by the state in which the film 15 is attached to or not attached to the support plate 21 .

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a delivery pipeline a3 is fixedly connected between the micro pump 1 and the container group 4, and a three-way valve a2 is provided on the delivery pipeline a3 to control the flow direction of different liquids delivered by the delivery pipeline a3. A delivery pipeline b5 is provided between the upper end outer walls of the container group 4, and the other end of the delivery pipeline b5 is fixedly connected to a three-way valve b6 to control the circulation of one of the different liquids in the delivery pipeline b5.

[0033] The fluid output by the micro pump 1 can be transmitted outwardly through the delivery pipeline a3, and under the control of the three-way valve a2, different fluids are input into the corresponding container group 4. When the different fluids inside the container group 4 are transported outwardly, they are discharged outwardly through the delivery pipeline b5, and under the restriction of the three-way valve b6, the corresponding liquid is selected to be discharged outwardly.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, a delivery pipeline c7 is fixedly connected between the three-way valve b6 and the microscopic model 13 to limit the flow direction of the liquid, a connection line 9 is fixedly connected between the microscope 8 and the data processor 10 to transmit the image data captured by the microscope 8 to the inside of the data processor 10 for image processing, and a delivery pipeline d12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the right end of the connector 16 to discharge the fluid outward, and the other end of the delivery pipeline d12 is fixedly connected to a recovery fluid meter 11 to collect the discharged fluid.

[0035] The fluid passing through the three-way valve b6 will be transported to the micro model 13 through the transport pipeline c7 and circulate from left to right through the gap. The images taken by the microscope 8 and the data transmitted through the connecting line 9 are transmitted to the data processor 10 for result analysis. After passing through the micro model 13, the fluid will be discharged to the recovery fluid meter 11 through the transport pipeline d12 for collection.

[0036] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: first, the suction port 14 is connected to an external vacuum pump and the micro model 13 is sucked into a vacuum state for two hours. Then, the saturated formation water inside the container group 4 is replaced by the configured simulated displacement formation water to establish the bound water saturation and stand for twenty-four hours. The crude oil in the micro model 13 is replaced by injected water until the residual oil is formed. The chemical agent is used to replace the residual oil. During the displacement process, the microscope 8 is used to take pictures, and the start-up process and distribution of the residual oil are collected in real time. The flow process and various phenomena in the experiment are recorded, and the photographed data are transmitted to the data processor 10 for research and analysis. During the vacuum pumping process of the micro model 13, the gap between the connector 16 and the fixed head 19 can be filled by the leak-proof pad 18. In the subsequent experimental process, if gas flows in the micro model 13, it will cause gas leakage and cause the film 15 between the fixed ring a20 and the fixed ring b22 to bulge, so as to alert the experimenter to perform maintenance.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein.
