چکیده

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Applied Mechanics, Chalmers University of Technology, Hörsalsvägen 7, 412 96 Göteborg, Sweden Abstract Background: Seepage in porous media is modeled as a Stokes flow in an open pore system contained in a rigid, impermeable and spatially periodic matrix. By homogenization, the problem is turned into a two-scale problem consisting of a Darcy type problem on the macroscale and a Stokes flow on the subscale.

Numerical homogenization of two-phase flow in porous media

Homogenization has proved its effectiveness as a method of upscaling for linear problems, as they occur in single-phase porous media flow for arbitrary heterogeneous rocks. Here we extend the classical homogenization approach to nonlinear problems by considering incompressible, immiscible two-phase porous media flow. The extensions have been based on the principle of preservation of form, stati...

A unified approach to numerical homogenization of flow parameters in porous media

The aim of upscaling is to determine equivalent homogeneous parameters at a coarse-scale from a spatially oscillating fine-scale parameter distribution. A large variety of upscaling methods is available, among which the homogenization method plays an important role. This paper presents an extension of the classical homogenization method to nonlinear problems as they occur while upscaling parame...

Gas-liquid Relative Permeability Estimation in 2D Porous Media by Lattice Boltzmann Method: Low Viscosity Ratio 2D LBM Relative Permeability

This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...

On Computational Homogenization of Fluid-filled Porous Materials

Porous materials are present in many natural as well as engineered structures. Engineering examples include filters, sanitary products and foams while examples of natural occurrences are oil reservoirs and biological tissue. These materials possess a strongly heterogeneous microstructure consisting of a contiguous solid skeleton, more or less saturated with fluid. The scale of the substructural...
