Dynamic network modeling of two-phase drainage in porous media.

We present a dynamic network model for modeling two-phase flow. We account for wetting layer flow, meniscus oscillation, and the dynamics of snapoff. Interfaces are tracked through pore elements using a modified Poiseuille equation for the equivalent hydraulic resistance of the fluids between the pore element centers. The model is used to investigate the effects of capillary number and viscosit...

A New Approach for Constructing Pore Network Model of Two Phase Flow in Porous Media

Development of pore network models for real porous media requires a detailed understanding of physical processes occurring on the microscopic scale and a complete description of porous media morphology. In this study, the microstructure of porous media has been represented by three dimensional networks of interconnected pores and throats which are designed by an object oriented approach. Af...

Study on Flow in Fractured Porous Media Using Pore-Fracture Network Modeling

Microscopic flow in fractured porous media is a typical problem for the exploitation of tight reservoirs. The rapid-flow in the fractured porous-media is of great significance to efficient and continuous oil/gas exploitation. The fractures are expected to enhance flow conductivity and mass transfer between matrix and fractures, and to improve oil displacement during water flooding. However, the...

Pore-scale modeling of transverse dispersion in porous media

[1] A physically based description is provided for the transverse dispersion coefficient in porous media as a function of Péclet number, Pe. We represent the porous medium as lattices of bonds with square cross section whose radius distribution is the same as computed for Berea sandstone and describe flow (Stokes equation) and diffusion (random walk method) at the pore scale ( mm) to compute th...
