Description

The acquisition methods of gas liquid film in a kind of micron capillary tube passage
Technical field
The present invention relates to petroleum enhanced recovery fields, have the dynamic of micron capillary tube passage more particularly to a kind of utilization The method at measuring device acquisition gas-liquid dynamic displacing phase interface.
Background technique
Two-phase driving mechanism in the capillary of single micro-meter scale is the two-phase displacement in natural environment porous media Basis, the two-phase displacement in porous media occur in numerous industry or natural process, such as the water drive gas, molten of compact oil reservoir Solve gas drive, the processes such as water drive oil, the characteristics of above-mentioned industrial process is the faint (range 10 of capillary number of viscous force-10<Ca<10-5), gravity is faint, and (Bond number Bo is less than 10-4).The key factor for influencing displacement process is capillary force, and calculates the pass of capillary force Bond parameter is the contact angle of two-phase interface Yu pipeline wall surface.The calculating of capillary force is calculated according to Young-Laplace formula, as follows Shown in formula,
γ is interfacial tension, and the actual range of contact angle θ is 0~180 °, works as θ<P at 90 °cFor positive value, work as θ>At 90 °, Pc For negative value, therefore capillary force is likely to be that hinder the resistance of displacement be also likely to be the power for promoting displacement.Moreover, contact angle The mistake of assessment will be such that capillary force calculates there are serious error, make mistakes so as to cause the assessment of displacement process.Therefore, it obtains Dynamic Contact angle information under above-mentioned industrial condition is most important for assessing two-phase displacement process in entire porous media.
The technology of (dynamic) contact angle under more perfect measurement phase interface motion state, such as plate immersion method, hair Tubule liquid rises method.Plate immersion method be by one piece of solid plate to be measured, with certain speed, with plate perpendicular to liquid level posture into Enter or detach liquid level, this process is being led to using the contact angle of phase interface at high-speed camera shooting liquid level and plate contact point Cross the size of image measurement contact angle;Or the stress using dynamometer measurement plate in this motion process, calculate out-of-bounds Face tension is counter to release contact angle.
Capillary liquid rises method, is under the liquid level that the capillary inlet of a known radius is extended vertically into wet phase liquid, The height and corresponding time that wet phase liquid level rises are shot by high-speed camera, goes out to contact by Washburn formula to calculating Angle.
But measurement capillary number 10 is unable to using above two scheme-10<Ca<10-5And Bond number Bo<10-4Operating condition Under dynamic contact angle.
In addition, needing to obtain the image of amplification using the microscope of high magnification numbe in order to observe contact angle, also meaning that The visual field of observation is small.However dynamic displacement process means that phase interface can move a certain distance, therefore high magnification numbe is micro- Mirror can not observe the motion process of phase interface.If observed using the microscope of low power number, it can be observed that phase interface The variation of position can not but observe phase interface, also just can not directly measure contact angle.
In conclusion now needing a kind of not only observable to obviously observe the dynamic test platform of phase interface, but also available The method of phase interface out.

According to goal pressure Pt, the length x of contact angle measured value θ and liquid in micron capillary tube passage directly calculates Ideal injection flow Q, control system then can be with the flow of real-time control syringe pump according to Q.
After obtaining injection flow Q, it can be contacted with the movement speed foundation of this and the revolving speed and Mobile base of motor, and then then may be used Control the position of phase interface on microfluidic chip.
Step 300, during draw-off pump controls pressure, the motor that control system controls mobile platform simultaneously makes to move Seat moves horizontally, and drives microfluidic chip mobile to the direction opposite with liquid moving direction is tested in micron capillary tube passage, And the mobile holding dynamic equilibrium of the two and the phase interface for forming test fluid body are always positioned at the central region of camera unit;
The mode for controlling Mobile base speed v is as follows:
N=f/k
Wherein, n is the revolving speed of motor, and f is the pulse signal frequency that control system issues, and k is to turn frequency ratio;
V=Lpn
LpFor the screw pitch of lead screw.The movement speed for moving seat as a result, can accurately be controlled by control system, the control of motor Device processed can receive to control the voltage signal in direction, if comparison voltage is 2.5V, input a high voltage (such as 5V) to controller, Then motor will rotate forward, and input a low-voltage (such as 1V) to controller, then motor will invert.Therefore the mobile speed of Mobile base Spending v and direction all can carry out real-time control and record by computer.Speed v when specific Mobile base is mobile toward some direction For positive number, v on the contrary is that negative then can be by artificially providing.
The displacement for recording Mobile base is critically important to the displacement and speed that calculate phase interface, according to above-mentioned control stepper motor Thinking devises following Mobile base displacement record scheme:If displacement of the Mobile base from 0 moment to t moment is s, according to displacement Formula:
Control is since the moment 0, every the speed v of the time interval record Mobile base of Δ ti, i=1,2,3 ... m, then M speed data is had recorded in total when carving t, then the formula can be separated into:
Wherein, whether the value of Δ t has quick variation dependent on the speed of Mobile base described in actual mechanical process. As long as time interval Δ t acquirement is sufficiently small, such as 10ms~100ms, then high-precision displacement data can be obtained.The value of Δ t Whether the speed dependent on Mobile base in actual mechanical process has quick variation.
The method for making phase interface be automatically maintained at the centre of the visual field width of camera unit always is as follows:
Wherein, V is the phase boundary face velocity acquired in real time, d be phase interface in the visual field width of camera unit From Left The distance of edge, v are the speed of Mobile base, τvFor time constant, physical significance is from the view that phase interface is deviateed to camera unit The distance d-W of Yezhong centres/ 2 drop to 0 required for the time.
Under automatic control mode, when phase interface is with some speed V deviation visual field center, Mobile base, which needs to use to be greater than, to be somebody's turn to do Phase interface is maintained visual field center by the inverted speed of speed, and after phase interface returns to visual field center, the speed of Mobile base It should be v=-V.
Step 400, when the test pressure in micron capillary tube passage is met the requirements, phase interface is obtained by camera unit Image is simultaneously sent to control system;
Step 500, control system carries out gray scale conversion and filtering processing to the image, then will using Threshold Segmentation Algorithm Gray level image is converted to bianry image, goes out to constitute pipeline shape boundary graph by the color extraction of pixel using connected region method The boundary point of picture;
As shown in fig. 6, either color image or gray level image that camera unit obtains, are all converted, only to obtain To the image of the micron capillary tube passage of reflection phase interface.
White corresponding grey scale value 255 in image, black correspondence 0, the gray value of remaining different degrees of grey 0 and 255 it Between.Filtering processing is the independent patch in order to remove the noise of pixel in image, small area.
The specific processing step for wherein extracting the boundary point of composition pipeline shape boundary image is as follows:
Step 510, the pixel of black region in bianry image is denoted as numerical value 0, the pixel of white area is denoted as number Value 1;
Here gray level image is converted to by two-value (black and white) image using Threshold Segmentation Algorithm, at this time liquid regions and solid Region is divided into black region (numerical value 0), and region occupied by air is white area (numerical value 1), therefore in image There are two region black regions and white areas.
Step 520, by all pixels value I (xi,yiThe coordinate points of)=1 pixel adjacent with its carries out AND operation;If Operation result is 1 and pixel is labeled as internal point, and the pixel is labeled as boundary point if operation result is 0;
As shown in figure 5, boundary is extracted here by identification connected region, first by all pixels value I (xi,yi)=1 The picture of coordinate points 8 (if image border if be 5, if in image four corners be 3) pixel adjacent with its Element value carries out AND operation for 1;Pixel is labeled as internal point if operation result is 1, if 8 coordinates that pixel is adjacent There are the pixels of a pixel value I=0 (black color dots) in point, then the result of operation is 0, which is labeled as boundary point.
Step 530, all boundary points are put forward after operation to get all sides for constituting pipeline shape boundary images are arrived Boundary's point.As shown in Figure 7,8.
Step 600, the phase interface for representing in boundary point and indicating two relative interfaces in left and right in pipeline shape boundary image is identified With the coordinate points of terminal surface and upper and lower two relative walls, and each coordinate points is ranked up and is compiled according to the size of coordinate value Number, according to the coordinate dot characteristics for constituting non-end face, by the coordinate point deletion of all non-end faces, while determining two wall surfaces and end Two terminal contact points coordinates of face intersection;
The mode being ranked up to coordinate points each after extraction is as follows:From any one boundary pointStart, it will be another A boundary pointIt is arranged inBefore or after, arrangement condition isOrAnd so on, by k Boundary point is arranged in a sequenceThe coordinate of all the points of structure shaping boundary is obtained, To facilitate the subsequent identification to phase interface, contact point and wall surface etc..
Here number, which refers to, is successively numbered the coordinate points after sequence by 1,2,3 ... sequence since 0.
The coordinate dot characteristics for constituting terminal surface are as follows:
As shown in figure 9, should be theoretically a vertical straight line since non-end face is a vertical line, but practical acquisition Image in its may generate certain deviation, therefore the variation of its abscissa value is unanimously or in a certain range, and ordinate Variation is cumulative, row of horizontal, ordinate value the size to the progress of each coordinate points from small to large in the coordinate points obtained according to front Sequence selects the coordinate points of abscissa value variation within a predetermined range all to delete, that is, deletes non-end face.
Wall surface in the present invention refers to that the inner wall in microcapillary road in micro-image, phase interface refer to the boundary of gas and liquid Face, contact point refer to the intersection point of phase interface Yu upper and lower two wall surfaces, and non-end face is then the pipe end opposite with phase interface.Specifically Ground, if the abscissa of pipe end is x=Ws, for Arbitrary Boundaries point i, as long as meeting xi=Ws, then by point i from 7 boundary's point of side Rejected in sequence, then as shown, line segment c (terminal surface) can be removed, and in remaining point with upper wall surface (line segment d) and lower wall (adjacent terminal contact points coordinate D and C can then be obtained at the both ends line segment b) in face.
Step 700, remaining coordinate sequence is ranked up each coordinate points according to the variation of coordinate value using energy function, It primarily determines the coordinate points distribution trend of phase interface and two wall surfaces, then sets energy threshold and choose variation lower than the energy cut-off The coordinate points of value are simultaneously divided and are numbered, by taking the average value of number to can determine the rough seat of two endpoints of phase interface Mark, and then Preliminary division goes out to respectively constitute the coordinate points of phase interface and two wall surfaces;
Primarily determine that the process of the coordinate points distribution trend of phase interface and two wall surfaces is as follows:
If there remains n+1 pixel after removing line segment c in boundary point, the coordinate point sequence of coordinate composition is (x0, y0)、(x1,y1)…(xn,yn), in real image, phase interface is not a smooth curve, and upper wall surface and lower wall surface are same Nor straight straight line.It, can be by phase interface and upper wall surface, lower wall surface by energy function come the variation tendency of coordinates computed point It is distinguished roughly.
By any one coordinate points (x on coordinate point sequencei,yi), with its in sequence at a distance of m coordinate points (xi+m, yi+m) be compared according to the following formula:
Ei=| | xi-xi+m|-|yi-yi+m||
The variation of coordinate points in the x direction that can be obtained on phase interface is weaker, changes in y-direction relatively by force, therefore Ei≈ m;And the variation of the coordinate on two wall surfaces in the x direction is stronger, changes in y-direction weaker, has Ei≈m;And from two Wall surface is transitioned into the essentially identical E of this its variation on the direction x and the direction y of segment boundary point of phase interfacei≈0。
The process that Preliminary division goes out the coordinate points for respectively constituting phase interface and two wall surfaces is as follows:
Step 710, from any one coordinate pointsStart, by another coordinate pointsWithOrCondition relative coordinate pointIt is arranged, is arranged in a sequence to all coordinate pointsAfterwards, an energy threshold E is setT, value range is 1≤ET≤ m, in all coordinate points Middle search meets Ei≤ETAll coordinate points, obtain the regional sequence being made of two sections of serial number coordinate points;
Such as in number 10,11,12,20,21,22,10,11 and 12 be that continuously, 20,21 and 22 be continuously, still 12 to 20 be discontinuous.
Step 720, using number reckling in regional sequence as an endpoint of upper wall surface, with corresponding upper wall surface Coordinate points between non-termination contact coordinate are the coordinate points Serial Number Range to form upper wall surface;
Using regional sequence number in the maximum as an endpoint of lower wall surface, with the non-end in contact of corresponding lower wall surface Coordinate points between point coordinate are the coordinate points Serial Number Range to form lower wall surface;
To being averaged after numbers all in regional sequence summation, then first number for being less than average value is phase interface One endpoint, and first number for being greater than average value is then another endpoint of phase interface, the coordinate points between two endpoints It is then the coordinate points Serial Number Range for forming phase interface.
As shown in Figure 10, it is assumed that the number of two coordinate points of first and last in this two sections continuous regions is u coordinate points in total (such as number is 10,11,12,20,21,22 respectively, at this time u=6);Minimum value (number 10 in example) in search sequence enables This point is O point;Maximum value (number 22 in example) in search sequence, enabling this point is R point;All numbers of sequence are summed Operation simultaneously sentences u and (is in the example shown (10+11+12+20+21+22)/6=16), enables the calculated result beIt enables first in sequence It is a to be less thanNumber be P (number 12 in example), enable first to be greater thanNumber be Q (number 20 in example).Wherein Coordinate points in number P to Q range are rough phase interfaces, and the coordinate points in number D to O range are rough lower wall surface b, Coordinate points in number R to C range are rough upper wall surface d.
Aforementioned obtained coordinate point sequence is not necessarily according to upper wall surface right endpoint (D)-phase interface upper extreme point (A)-phase interface Lower extreme point (B)-lower wall surface right endpoint (C) sequence arrangement, in order to avoid guarantee correctly to obtain by preceding method point O, P, Q and R needs to adjust the sequence of coordinate points point sequence by the way of cyclic shift, so that being incremented by with number, key point D- A-B-C successively occurs.Sequence revision program when specifically sorting to coordinate points is as follows:
As shown in figure 11, the energy function of boundary point sequence is set, between the terminal contact points coordinate by two wall surfaces Region and maximum, i.e. E are determined according to the difference of the ordinate of two non-termination contact coordinatesmax=| yD-yC|, then pass through searching Single maximum value-based algorithm determines Ei=EmaxCoordinate number, if its number is i=imax, by coordinate point sequence first seat Punctuate carries out cyclic shift with energy function respectively, and number imax is become number 0, is still n+1 coordinate points, since 0 It numbers, the relationship of new number j and former number i are:
After adjusting sequence to the coordinate points progress cyclic shift mode of sequence, so that being incremented by with number, represents Four boundary points of pipeline shape boundary image successively occur.
Step 800, cubic function is obtained after carrying out cubic polynomial fitting to the coordinate points for constituting phase interface, to two walls The coordinate points in face carry out linear function and are fitted to obtain two corresponding expression formulas, and two endpoints of phase interface can be obtained after solution Accurate coordinates, then all coordinate points between the two are found out by cubic function, all coordinate points being fitted between two endpoints, Obtain phase interface.
As shown in figure 12, the step of obtaining the accurate coordinates of two endpoints of phase interface is as follows:
Step 810, if first coordinate points for constituting phase interface are P, the last one coordinate points is Q, within the scope of P to Q All coordinate points carry out cubic polynomial fitting, and using abscissa x as dependent variable, ordinate y is independent variable, and fitting obtains meniscus The cubic function x=f of shapePQ(y);
Step 820, if first coordinate points for constituting upper wall surface are D, the last one coordinate points is O;Constitute lower wall surface First coordinate points is R, the last one coordinate points is C;It is fitted using linear function, using abscissa y as dependent variable, ordinate x For independent variable, the expression formula y=k of two straight lines is obtainedDOx+cDOAnd y=kRCx+cRC, wherein kDOAnd kRCFor the slope of straight line;
Step 830, according to obtained cubic function and two straight line expression formulas are fitted, following two equation group is solved;
Obtain the coordinate (x of phase interface upper extreme point AA,yA) and phase boundary phase lower extreme point B coordinate (xB,yB).Such as Figure 13 It is shown, so far two endpoints of phase interface coordinate it is known that within the scope of phase interface A-B each point coordinate, the range of calculating is for y Coordinate is yA< y < yB, using the obtained cubic function f of fittingPQIt is calculated, so that it may obtain all the points in A to B range Coordinate, so that it may the curvilinear coordinate for the phase interface A-B being fitted.
