The
Dean Stark extractor is used to determine fluid saturation of core samples. The
sample is first weighed and then introduced into the Dean Stark extractor. The
water fraction is vaporized by boiling solvent, condensed and then collected in
a calibrated receiver. Vaporized solvent also condenses, soaks the sample, and
extracts the oil. The sample is then oven dried and weighed. The oil content is
determined by gravimetric difference while the water content is volumetrically
measured by the receiving tube. The apparatus consists of a
distillation/extraction glassware unit and a heating mantle with thermostatic
controller. The glassware is composed of boiling flask with extractor, a sample
support screen, volumetrically graduated water receiving tube, condenser and
desiccant drying tube. A flexible plastic tubing is also used to connect the
condenser to the water cooling unit. All these devices are mounted on a mounting
rack
