Smoothed particle hydrodynamics and its applications for multiphase flow and reactive transport in porous media
نویسندگان
چکیده
Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is a Lagrangian method based on a meshless discretization of partial differential equations. In this review, we present SPH discretization of the Navier-Stokes and advection-diffusionreaction equations, implementation of various boundary conditions, and time integration of the SPH equations, and we discuss applications of the SPH method for modeling pore-scale multiphase flows and reactive transport in porous and fractured media.

Modelling of Flow in Porous Media and Resin Transfer Moulding Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
A novel numerical method is presented for the simulation of flow in porous media, based on a mesoscopic-scale modelling using smoothed particle hydrodynamics. The method is demonstrated to provide encouraging results for both saturated and unsaturated porous media flow. The Darcy law is confirmed for low drift velocities in a saturated medium, while nonlinear behaviour is observed for higher va...

In the current work, the mesh free Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, was employed to numerically investigate the transient flow of a viscoplastic material. Using this method, large deformation of the sample and its free surface boundary were captured without the cumbersome process of the grid generation. This three-step SPH scheme employs an explicit predictor-corrector technique an...
متن کاملDissipative Particle Dynamics and Other Particle Methods for Multiphase Fluid Flow in Fractured and Porous Media
Particle methods are much less computationally efficient than grid based numerical solution of the Navier Stokes equation, and they have been used much less extensively, particularly for engineering applications. However, they have important advantages for some applications. These advantages include rigorous mass conservation, momentum conservation and isotropy. In addition, there is no need fo...
