Fluid Flow Modeling in Fractures
In this paper we study fluid flow in fractures using numerical simulation and address the challenging issue of hydraulic property characterization in fractures. The methodology is based on Computational Fluid Dynamics, using a finite-volume based discretization scheme. Steady-state, viscous, laminar flow simulations for a Newtonian fluid are carried out in both 2D and 3D fracture models. In 2D,...
متن کاملEXACT SOLUTIONS FOR FLOW OF A SISKO FLUID IN PIPE
By means of He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) an approximate solution of velocity eld is derived for the ow in straight pipes of non-Newtonian uid obeying the Sisko model. The nonlinear equations governing the ow in pipe are for- mulated and analyzed, using homotopy perturbation method due to He. Furthermore, the obtained solutions for velocity eld is graphically sketched...
متن کاملSelf-similar solutions for a fractional thin film equation governing hydraulic fractures
In this paper, self-similar solutions for a fractional thin film equation governing hydraulic fractures are constructed. One of the boundary conditions, which accounts for the energy required to break the rock, involves the toughness coefficient K ≥ 0. Mathematically, this condition plays the same role as the contact angle condition in the thin film equation. We consider two situations: The zer...
متن کاملCFD-Calculation of Fluid Flow in a
An accurate description of the fluid flow and heat transfer within a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR), for the safety analysis and reactor performance is always desirable. In this paper a mathematical model of the fundamental physical phenomena which are associated to a typical PWR is presented. The mathematical model governs the fluid dynamics in the reactor. Using commercial software CFX, a co...
متن کاملHomogenization of the Equations Governing the Flow Between a Slider and a Rough Spinning Disk
The main challenge in the design of hard-disk drives is to increase the density of data storage. Traditional disk-drive designs involve a read/write head positioned on a slider bearing that flies over a smooth spinning magnetic disk. The demand for larger data storage has made it necessary to reduce the minimum gap height for various design features of the air-bearing surface to be in the range...
