Determine Injection Fluid Volume
Fluid Volume = BTV * ne * SFV
Fluid Volume = Water + Emulsion Volume
BTV =Base Treatment Volume
ne = Effective Porosity (dimensionless)
SFV = Volume Scaling Factor (dimensionless)
Required Volume Scaling Factor varies <br />due to
Ratio of SR to SW
Desired contact efficiency
Higher SFV ? Higher contact efficiency
To determine the amount of water required, you multiply the Base Treatment Volume times effective porosity times the Volume Scaling Factor.
Higher values of the volume scaling factor typically result in higher contact efficiencies. In later slides you'll see how to select this design factor.
