Analytical and variational numerical methods for unstable miscible displacement flows in porous media
The miscible displacement of one fluid by another in a porous medium has received considerable attention in subsurface, environmental and petroleum engineering applications. When a fluid of higher mobility displaces another of lower mobility, unstable patterns referred to as viscous fingering may arise. Their physical and mathematical study has been the object of numerous investigations over th...
متن کاملStabilized finite element methods for miscible displacement in porous media
In this paper, we shall dérive a new model for the miscible displacement of one incompressible fluid by another in porous media using simple physical conservation laws For a dilute mixture m which the density can be approximated by a constant, this new model reduces to the standard one used for the last decade The model is governed by a nonlinear system consisting of pressure and concentration ...
متن کاملNumerical Methods for a Model for Compressible Miscible Displacement in Porous Media
A nonlinear parabolic system is derived to describe compressible miscible displacement in a porous medium. The system is consistent with the usual model for incompressible miscible displacement. Two finite element procedures are introduced to approximate the concentration of one of the fluids and the pressure of the mixture. The concentration is treated by a Galerkin method in both procedures, ...

متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Finite Element Methods for Miscible Displacements in Porous Media
Finite element methods are used to solve a nonlinear system of partial diierential equations which models incompressible miscible displacement of one uid by another in porous media. From a backward nite diierence discretization we deene a sequentially implicit time-stepping algorithm which uncouples the system. The Galerkin method is employed to approximate the pressure, and improvement velocit...
