Numerical Methods for Flow and Transport in Porous Media
نویسنده
چکیده
In this short course we will start by deriving the basic conservation laws for mass, momentum and energy. We will extend the results to mixtures in general and then to multiphase flow in porous media. We will describe the black-oil models and the Buckley-Leverett problem. Second, we will review the basic numerical methods for solving the differential equations that model a fluid in a porous medium. Finally, we will give some typical problems of flow and transport and show how they can be solved numerically.

Deterioration of groundwater resources in coastal regions due to the progression of saline water in aquifers in these regions is currently one of the important issues in providing water needs in these areas. In coastal regions, saline water enters the aquifer from below in shape of wedge. Due to the difference in the density between fresh and salty water, an interface zone forms between two flu...
