Patent CA-2338237-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAREK RICHARD P
IPC: H01F27/32
Filed: 1999-07-16
Abstract: A method of making various insulated conductor sizes during a transformer coil winding process by slitting and bonding insulating sheet materials (30) and a foil sheet conductor (42) into a composite foil conductor/insulation (44). The conductor/insulation composite (44) is made by folding the composite into a substantially U-shaped length which has a central portion between two leg portions (32, 34) and folding the leg portions (32, 34) of the "U" inwardly to a position substantially parallel to the central portion of the "U" to bring the free ends (38a, 40a) of the leg portions into opposing relation. This method provides a folded insulated foil conductor (44) having a two-conductor thickness surrounded by the overall insulation. Provision is also made for increasing the cross-sectional area of the conductor (42).

Abstract: - Méthode pour modéliser des écoulements dans un milieu fracturé traversé pa r un réseau d'objets conducteurs de fluides de géométrie définie mais non homogénéisables à l'échelle de chaque maille du modèle (des grandes fractures, des failles s ub- sismiques par exemple, cles couches sédimentaires très perméables, etc.). - La méthode permet de simuler des écoulements de fluides dans un milieu géologique poreux fissuré de structure connue que l'on discrétise par un maillage et qu e l'on modélise en considérant que chaque volume élémentaire du milieu géologique fissuré est constitué d'un milieu fissure et d'un milieu matrice équivalents à l'échelle de chaque maille entre lesquels on détermine les échanges de fluides. La méthod e comporte une détermination des échanges intervenant entre le milieu matrice et le milieu fissure, et une modélisation des transmissivités des différentes mailles traversées par chaque objet conducteur, de façon que la transmissivité résultante corresponde à la transmissivité directe le long de cet objet conducteur. On évite ainsi d'avo ir à faire une modélisation explicite de ces objets qui s'avère prohibitive à l'échelle d'u n champ du fait du nombre très élevé de mailles impliquées et des contraintes numérique s. - Applications à l'évaluation de réservoirs d'hydrocarbures.
