2 COURSES TAUGHT Undergraduate: Material and Energy Balances Fluid Flow Thermodynamics Engineering Economy Advanced Chemical Engineering Concepts Reactor Design Graduate: Multiphase Flow and Heat Transfer Reactor Design Thermodynamics Alternative Energy Systems Mass Transfer Research Philosophy & Design P. Stork page two COURSES DEVELOPED Developed course titled Material and Energy Balances for outreach students. The effort involved writing an extensive study guide for self-paced correspondence course. Designed and developed graduate course titled Multiphase Flow and Heat Transfer. This course has been very well received by students and is offered as a short course to industry professionals, INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE Consultant, Shell Petroleum Technology, Austin, TX, Present Pioneered work on modeling transient momentum, heat, and mass transport in wellbores. Made significant impact on well test design and interpretation. Model is aiding Chevron with well tests and allowing better design of surface facilities for wells in high-temperature reservoirs. Introduced concept of thermal storage to identify a phenomenon that affects early-time temperature and pressure data in transient tests. Designed and implemented model for phase redistribution in wellbores. Developed and implemented rigorous solution for formation temperature distribution with a finite wellbore heat source. Utilized this method to formulate expressions for fluid temperatures for multiphase production in onshore and offshore facilities in single and multiple producing strings. Redesigned and simplified the method for estimating static formation temperature from mud temperature (after circulation has ceased), thus offering more accuracy and reliability. Developed analytic expressions for fluid temperature in the annulus and the tubing during mud circulation. The new technique facilitates modeling of heat transfer during gas-lift operations and gas-lift valve design. Developed method to analyze acoustic well sounding (AWS) data for testing pumping wells. Made significant contributions in the area of pumping well testing. Pioneered modeling of multiphase flow, including two-phase flow of oil and water and three-phase flow of gas-oil-water in vertical and deviated wells. The wellbore model has become an industry standard and is utilized extensively by Chevron and British Petroleum Consultant, Bush Oil Resources, Odessa, TX, Developed computational tools for cryogenic transport processes under low pressure and micro gravity conditions. Technical Researcher, NASA-Glenn, Cleveland, OH, Developed computational tools for cryogenic transport processes under low pressure and micro gravity conditions. Modeled transient flow of mass, momentum, and energy for cryogenic fluid flow.
