Abstract
Gas-liquid systems are one of the most common systems which appear in hydrocarbon reservoirs; therefore, the investigation of the interfacial properties and effect of temperature and pressure on these systems is crucial for optimizing the plan of production. In this study, interfacial resistances for N2-alkane and CO2-alkane systems were estimated at different pressures and temperatures. A model was developed to calculate interfacial resistance using the equilibrium and dynamic interfacial tension data which were measured by pendant drop technique at different pressures and temperatures. Interfacial resistances were estimated for a temperature range from 313 to 393 K and pressures from 0.34 to 41.7MPa. The results showed that interfacial resistance in N2-alkane and CO2-alkane systems decreased at higher pressure. Moreover, In N2-alkane systems, the interfacial resistance decreases as the temperature increases; however, in CO2-alkane system the interfacial resistance depends on the diffusion and solubility interactions; it will decrease, increase or remain constant.
