A finite-volume moving-mesh method for two-phase flow in dynamically fracturing porous media
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multiphase flow in fractured porous media can be described by discrete fracture matrix models that represent the fractures as dimensionally reduced manifolds embedded bulk medium. Generalizing earlier work on this approach we focus immiscible two-phase time-dependent geometries, i.e., itself and aperture of might evolve time. For dynamic geometries kind, neglecting capillary forces, deduce transversal averaging a full dimensional description model governs geometric evolution dynamics. The core computational contribution is mixed-dimensional finite-volume discretization based conforming moving-mesh ansatz. This (FVMM) algorithm tracking fractures' motions family unions facets mesh. Notably, method permits arbitrary movement triangulation while keeping mass conservation constraint. In series numerical examples investigate modeling error it compares to original model. Moreover, show performance for complex wave pattern induced interaction saturation fronts evolving fractures.

Finite volume schemes for two phase flow in porous media
The system of equations obtained from the conservation of multiphasic fluids in porous media is usually approximated by finite volume schemes in the oil reservoir simulation setting. The convergence properties of these schemes are only known in a few simplified cases. The aim of this paper is to present some new results of convergence in more complex cases. These results are based on an adaptat...
متن کاملA Hybridized Crouziex-Raviart Nonconforming Finite Element and Discontinuous Galerkin Method for a Two-Phase Flow in the Porous Media
In this study, we present a numerical solution for the two-phase incompressible flow in the porous media under isothermal condition using a hybrid of the linear lower-order nonconforming finite element and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. This hybridization is developed for the first time in the two-phase modeling and considered as the main novelty of this research.The p...
متن کاملA combined finite volume-nonconforming finite element scheme for compressible two phase flow in porous media
We propose and analyze a combined finite volume–nonconforming finite element scheme on general meshes to simulate the two compressible phase flow in porous media. The diffusion term, which can be anisotropic and heterogeneous, is discretized by piecewise linear nonconforming triangular finite elements. The other terms are discretized by means of a cell-centered finite volume scheme on a dual me...
متن کاملMixed Finite Element - Finite Volume Methods for Two Phase Flow in Porous Media
As a model problem for the miscible and imiscible two phase ow we consider the following system of partial diierential equations: ?div (a(c; x) (rp(x; t) + (c; x))) = 0 @tc(x; t) + div (u(x; t)c(x; t)) ? div (rc(x;t)) = f(x; t); with (x; t) 2 (0; T). Here u denotes the Darcy velocity, p the pressure and c the concentration of one phase of the uid. For small diiusions (0 < < < 1) standard Galerk...
متن کاملA method for bubble volume measurement under constant flow conditions in gas–liquid two-phase flow
Measuring the volume of a bubble, especially at its detachment, is a basic subject in gas-liquid two-phase flow research. A new indirect method for this measurement under constant flow conditions is presented. An electronic device is designed and constructed based on laser beam intensity. This device calculates the frequency of the bubble formation by measuring the total time of the formation p...
