Compositional simulation is challenging, because of highly nonlinear couplings between multi-component flow in porous media with thermodynamic phase behavior. The coupled system commonly solved by the fully-implicit scheme. Various compositional formulations have been proposed. However, severe convergence issues Newton solvers can arise under conventional formulations. Crossing boundaries produ...

The Salton Sea reservoir, located in Imperial County, Ca., is unique in several ways from most liquiddominated geothermal reservoirs that have been developed to date. One of these differences is the presence of hyper-dine brines containing up to 28% TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) and up to 0.2% NCG (Non-Condensible Gas). A simple material and energy balance model has been developed to study the e...

Probabilistic programming is related to a compositional approach to stochastic modeling by switching from discrete to continuous time dynamics. In continuous time, an operator-algebra semantics is available in which processes proceeding in parallel (and possibly interacting) have summed time-evolution operators. From this foundation, algorithms for simulation, inference and model reduction may ...
