Heterogeneity Preserving Upscaling for Heat Transport in Fractured Geothermal Reservoirs
In simulation of fluid injection in fractured geothermal reservoirs, the characteristics of the physical processes are severely affected by the local occurence of connected fractures. To resolve these structurally dominated processes, there is a need to develop discretization strategies that also limit computational effort. In this paper we present an upscaling methodology for geothermal heat t...
متن کاملCoupled Geomechanical and Reactive Geochemical Simulations for Fluid and Heat Flow in Enhanced Geothermal Reservoirs
A major concern in development of fractured reservoirs in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) is to achieve and maintain adequate injectivity, while avoiding short-circuiting flow paths. The injection performance and flow paths are dominated by fracture rock permeability. The evolution of fracture permeability can be made by change in temperature or pressure induced rock deformation and geochemic...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Three-Phase Flow in Deforming Fractured Reservoirs
Numerical Simulation of Three-Phase Flow in Deforming Fractured Reservoirs — The mathematical formulation of a three-phase, three-dimensional fluid flow and rock deformation in fractured reservoirs is presented in this paper. The present formulation accounts for the significant influence of coupling between the fluid flow and solid deformation, an aspect usually ignored in the reservoir simulat...
متن کاملA multiple-continuum model for simulating single-phase and multiphase flow in naturally fractured vuggy reservoirs
a r t i c l e i n f o The existence of vugs or cavities in naturally fractured reservoirs has long been observed. Even though these vugs are known for their large attribution to reserves of oil, natural gas, or groundwater, few quantitative investigations of fractured vuggy reservoirs have been conducted. In this paper, a multiple-continuum conceptual model is presented, based on geological dat...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Single-Phase and Multiphase Non-Darcy Flow in Porous and Fractured Reservoirs
A numerical method as well as a theoretical study of non-Darcy fluid flow through porous and fractured reservoirs is described. The non-Darcy behavior is handled in a three-dimensional, multiphase flow reservoir simulator, while the model formulation incorporates the Forchheimer equation for describing single-phase or multiphase non-Darcy flow and displacement. The non-Darcy flow through a frac...
