Numerical Simulation of Three-Phase Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media
We describe an efficient numerical simulator, based on an operator splitting technique, for three-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media that takes into account capillary forces, general relations for the relative permeability functions and variable porosity and permeability fields. Our numerical procedure combines a non-oscillatory, second order, conservative central difference scheme for th...
متن کاملNumerical homogenization of two-phase flow in porous media
Homogenization has proved its effectiveness as a method of upscaling for linear problems, as they occur in single-phase porous media flow for arbitrary heterogeneous rocks. Here we extend the classical homogenization approach to nonlinear problems by considering incompressible, immiscible two-phase porous media flow. The extensions have been based on the principle of preservation of form, stati...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of two-phase immiscible incompressible flows in heterogeneous porous media with capillary barriers
We present a new version of the sequential discontinuous Galerkin method introduced in [25] for two-phase immiscible incompressible flows in heterogeneous porous media with a discontinuous capillary field. Here, a new implementation of the extended interface condition, that does not use the threshold saturation value at the interface and permits treatment of different residual saturations in di...
متن کاملNumerical Treatment of Two-phase Flow in Capillary Heterogeneous Porous Media by Finite-volume Approximations
This paper examines two-phase flow in porous media with heterogeneous capillary pressure functions. This problem has received very little attention in the literature, and constitutes a challenge for numerical discretization, since saturation discontinuities arise at the interface between the different homogeneous regions in the domain. As a motivation we first consider a one-dimensional model p...
متن کاملLattice-Boltzmann simulation of two-phase flow in porous media
[1] We simulate two-fluid-phase flow at the pore scale using a lattice Boltzmann (LB) approach. Using a parallel processing version of the Shan-Chen model that we developed, we simulate a set of ideal two-fluid systems and a model two-fluid-phase porous medium system comprised of a synthetic packing with a relatively uniform distribution of spheres. We use the set of ideal two-phase systems to ...
