Numerical modeling of the flow and transport of radionuclides in heterogeneous porous media

This paper is concerned with numerical methods for the modeling of flow and transport of contaminant in porous media. The numerical methods feature the mixed finite element method over triangles as a solver to the Darcy flow equation and a conservative finite volume scheme for the concentration equation. The convective term is approximated with a Godunov scheme over the dual finite volume mesh, whereas the diffusion–dispersion term is discretized by piecewise linear conforming triangular finite elements. It is shown that the scheme satisfies a discrete maximum principle. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the methodology for a coupled system that includes an elliptic equation and a diffusion–convection–reaction equation arising when modeling flow and transport in heterogeneous porous media. The proposed scheme is robust, conservative, efficient, and stable, as confirmed by numerical simulations.      

Errors in the upstream mobility scheme for countercurrent two-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media

In reservoir simulation, the upstream mobility scheme is widely used for calculating fluid flow in porous media and has been shown feasible for flow when the porous medium is homogeneous. In the case of flow in heterogeneous porous media, the scheme has earlier been shown to give erroneous solutions in approximating pure gravity segregation. Here, we show that the scheme may exhibit larger errors when approximating flow in heterogeneous media for flux functions involving both advection and gravity segregation components. Errors have only been found in the case of countercurrent flow. The physically correct solution is approximated by an extension of the Godunov and Engquist–Osher flux. We also present a new finite volume scheme based on the local Lax–Friedrichs flux and test the performance of this scheme in the numerical experiments.     

A general method for simulating reactive dissolution in carbonate rocks with arbitrary geometry

The two-scale continuum model is widely used in simulating the reactive dissolution process and predicting the optimum injection rate for carbonate reservoir acidizing treatment. The numerical methods of this model are currently based on structured grids, which are not applicable for complicated geometries. In this study, a general numerical scheme for simulating a reactive flow problem on both structured and unstructured grids is presented based on the finite volume method (FVM). The convection and diffusion terms involved in the reactive flow model are discretized by using the upwind scheme and two-point flux approximation (TPFA), respectively. The location of the centroid node inside each control volume is moved by using an optimization algorithm to make the connections with the surrounding elements as orthogonal as possible, which systematically improves the accuracy of the TPFA scheme. Additionally, in order to avoid the computational complexity resulting from the discretization of the non-linear term, the mass balance equation is only discretized in the spatial domain to get a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These ODEs are coupled with the reaction equations and then solved using the numerical algorithm on ODEs. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are studied by comparing the results obtained from the proposed numerical method with previous experimental and numerical results. This comparison indicates that, compared with the previous methods, the proposed method predicts the wormhole structure more accurately. Finally, the presented method is used to check the effect of the domain geometry, and it is found that the geometry of the flow domain has no effect on the optimum injection velocity, but the radial domain requires a larger breakthrough volume than the linear domain when other parameters are fixed.     

An enhanced ensemble Kalman filter scheme incorporating model error in sequential coupling between flow and geomechanics

In this work, we construct a new methodology for enhancing the predictive accuracy of sequential methods for coupling flow and geomechanics while preserving low computational cost. The new computational approach is developed within the framework of the fixed-stress split algorithm procedure in conjunction with data assimilation based on the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF). In this context, we identify the high-fidelity model with the two-way formulation where additional source term appears in the flow equation containing the time derivative of total mean stress. The iterative scheme is then interlaced with data assimilation steps, which also incorporate the modeling error inherent to the EnKF framework. Such a procedure gives rise to an “enhanced one-way formulation,” exhibiting substantial improvement in accuracy compared with the classical one-way method. The governing equations are discretized by mixed finite elements, and numerical simulation of a 2D slab problem between injection and production wells illustrate the tremendous achievement of the method proposed herein.

A priori error estimates for the numerical solution of a coupled geomechanics and reservoir flow model with stress-dependent permeability

In this paper we consider the numerical solution of a coupled geomechanics and a stress-sensitive porous media reservoir flow model. We combine mixed finite elements for Darcy flow and Galerkin finite elements for elasticity. This work focuses on deriving convergence results for the numerical solution of this nonlinear partial differential system. We establish convergence with respect to the L ²-norm for the pressure and for the average fluid velocity and with respect to the H ¹-norm for the deformation. Estimates with respect to the L ²-norm for mean stress, which is of special importance since it is used in the computation of permeability for poro-elasticity, can be derived using the estimates in the H ¹-norm for the deformation. We start by deriving error estimates in a continuous-in-time setting. A cut-off operator is introduced in the numerical scheme in order to derive convergence. The spatial grids for the discrete approximations of the pressure and deformation do not need be the same. Theoretical convergence error estimates in a discrete-in-time setting are also derived in the scope of this investigation. A numerical example supports the convergence results.

An approximate F.E. analysis of seepage with a free surface

An approximate step-by-step procedure is presented for the finite element analysis of transient unconfined flow problems. At each step the free surface is modelled by means of segments coinciding with sides of the elements. This leads to an approximate but extremely simple solution scheme which can be readily incorporated into standard codes for confined analysis. The solutions of some significant problems are presented and compared with other non-approximate solutions. They show that the technique, in spite of its approximation, is capable of giving meaningful results from an engineering viewpoint.     

Modeling branched and intersecting faults in reservoir-geomechanics models with the extended finite element method

Faults are geological entities with thickness several orders of magnitude smaller than the grid blocks typically used to discretize geological formations. On using the extended finite element method (X-FEM), a structured mesh suffices and the faults can arbitrarily cut the elements in the mesh. Modeling branched and intersecting faults is a challenge, in particular when the faults work as internal fluid flow conduits that allow fluid flow in the faults as well as to enter/leave the faults. By appropriately selecting the enrichment function and the nodes to be enriched, we are able to capture the special characteristics of the solution in the vicinity of the fault. We compare different enrichment schemes for strong discontinuities and develop new continuous enrichment functions with discontinuous derivatives to model branched and intersecting weak discontinuities. Symmetric fluid flows within the regions embedded by branched, coplanar intersecting, and noncoplanar intersecting faults are considered to verify the effectiveness of the proposed enrichment scheme. For a complex fault consisting of branched and intersecting faults, the accuracy and efficiency of the X-FEM is compared with the FEM. We also demonstrate different slipping scenarios for branched and intersecting faults with the same friction coefficient. In addition, fault slipping triggered by an injection pressure and three-dimensional fluid flows are modeled to show the versatility of the proposed enrichment scheme for branched and intersecting weak discontinuities.
