    摘要: A method is provided for resolving undesired fluid flow in cement channels behind casing in one producing zone of a multi zone completion well operating on gas lift from the fluid flow from lower producing zones in the same well which is contained in production tubing passing through the producing zone being investigated. Gamma rays which are characteristic of the decay of the unstable isotope nitrogen 16 produced by activation of elemental oxygen nuclei comprising the molecular structure of both the tubing fluid flow and the undesired fluid flow are detected in at least two energy bonds at two longitudinally spaced detectors in a well borehole. By appropriately combining the four count rate signals so producing according to predetermined relationships the two fluid flow components in the same direction may be uniquely distinguished on the basis of their differing distances from the gamma ray detectors.

    摘要: Measurement of the linear flow velocity and volume flow rate of undesired behind casing water flow is provided. A well tool having a 14 MEV pulsed neutron source is used to irradiate the earth formations behind well casing with bursts of high energy neutrons. This irradiation activates elemental oxygen nuclei comprising the molecular structure of the undesired flow. Dual spaced gamma ray detectors located above or below the neutron source detect the decay of unstable isotope nitrogen 16 produced by the oxygen activation in the time intervals between the neutron bursts. Background radiation due to prompt N-.sigma. radiation is thus largely avoided. From the detected nitrogen 16 characteristic gamma rays the linear flow velocity of the undesired flow is determined. By combining this with an estimation of the distance R to the undesired flow region from the detectors, the volume flow rate V may be deduced.

    摘要: Equipment for the detection of undesired behind casing water flow in a producing well is provided. A well logging sonde having a modular fluid tight structure is disclosed. Basically, three modules which when joined together form a fluid tight assemblage comprise the sonde. A first module houses a 14 MEV neutron generator and a 125 kilovolt high voltage power supply for operating the neutron generator. A second module houses dual spaced gamma ray detectors for detecting characteristic gamma rays from the decay of radioactive nitrogen 16 at two different longitudinal distances from the neutron source. A third module houses control electronics and data transmission circuits for controlling the neutron generation and receiving detected signals from dual gamma ray detectors and for transmitting data to the surface from the sonde. The modules are constructed so that they may be assembled with the neutron generator either above or below the dual detectors while maintaining the same spacing distances from the generator to the detectors. Surface instrumentation for receiving and interpreting the gamma ray measurements are also provided.

    摘要: A sensor for measuring the flux of a gas and some simple alternate embodiments are disclosed. The sensor employs charged particle techniques and includes provision for compensating for environmentally produced changes in the charged particle source. The basic device includes an active region containing the charged particle source located between two upstream charged particle collectors and two downstream charged particle collectors, means for maintaining suitable electric fields between the charged particle source and the collectors, and means for measuring the electric current flowing in each collector. In operation, the sensor is able to compensate for changes in the charged particle source characteristics which would otherwise result in a change of sensor calibration.

    摘要: To measure the mass flow rate of a constituent of a gaseous stream, for example, a pollutant in an engine exhaust gas, the concentration or mole fraction of the constituent is measured by an analyzer. Then a tracer gas is injected into the gaseous stream at a predetermined rate and mixed therewith and the concentration of the tracer gas is measured. Then the mass flow rate of the constituent is calculated by the equation Wc Cc Mc Wc /Ct Mt where Wc and Wt are the mass flow rates of the constituent and the tracer gas respectively, Cc and Ct are the concentrations of the constituents and the tracer gas respectively, and Mc and Mt are the molecular weights of the constituent and the tracer gas respectively. Several constituents may be monitored simultaneously in this manner by measuring the concentration of each constituent and using only the one measurement for the tracer gas.
