Abstract

AbstractDimensionless parameters representing the viscous permeability (k) and NMR relaxation time (T1) of particle beds, while accounting also for the particle size, are shown to improve drastically the accuracy of k‐T1 correlations in the slow diffusion regime, in the absence of bulk relaxation effects. The finding is based on a regression analysis of numerical results for k and T1 in both random and ordered isotropic and anisotropic beds of fibers. Use of the formation factor (F) improves further the accuracy of the correlations only for the strongly anisotropic unidirectional arrays of fibers. A survey of related literature reveals an extensive effort in recent years in upgrading k‐T1 correlations, driven primarily by applications in petroleum and gas field exploration and recovery. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
