A Second Order Characteristic Method for Approximating Incompressible Miscible Displacement in Porous Media
An approximation scheme is defined for incompressible miscible displacement in porous media. This scheme is constructed by two methods. Under the regularity assumption for the pressure, cubic Hermite finite element method is used for the pressure equation, which ensures the approximation of the velocity smooth enough. A second order characteristic finite element method is presented to handle th...
متن کاملAnalytical 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 solutions to statistical moment equations of groundwater flow in nonstationary, bounded, heterogeneous media
In this paper we investigate the combined effect of nonstationarity in log hydraulic conductivity and the presence of boundaries on flow in heterogeneous aquifers. We derive general equations governing the statistical moments of hydraulic head for steady state flow by perturbation expansions. Due to their mathematical complexity, we solve the moment equations by the numerical technique of finit...
