On the dynamics and kinematics of two-fluid-phase flow in porous media

Journal Article Gray, W. G. ; Dye, A. L. ; McClure, J. E. ; ... - Water Resources Research

A model formulated in terms of both conservation and kinematic equations for phases and interfaces in two-fluid-phase flow in a porous medium system is summarized. Macroscale kinematic equations are derived as extensions of averaging theorems and do not rely on conservation principles. Models based on both conservation and kinematic equations can describe multiphase flow with varying fidelity.When only phase-based equations are considered, a model similar in form to the traditional model for two-fluid-phase flow results. When interface conservation and kinematic equations are also included, a novel formulation results that naturally includes evolution equations that express dynamic changes in fluid saturations,more »« less

An adaptive lattice Boltzmann scheme for modeling two-fluid-phase flow in porous medium systems

Journal Article Dye, Amanda L. ; McClure, James E. ; Adalsteinsson, David ; ... - Water Resources Research

In this paper, we formulate a multiple-relaxation-time (MRT) lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) to simulate two-fluid-phase flow in porous medium systems. The MRT LBM is applied to simulate the displacement of a wetting fluid by a nonwetting fluid in a system corresponding to a microfluidic cell. Analysis of the simulation shows widely varying time scales for the dynamics of fluid pressures, fluid saturations, and interfacial curvatures that are typical characteristics of such systems. Displacement phenomena include Haines jumps, which are relatively short duration isolated events of rapid fluid displacement driven by capillary instability. An adaptive algorithm is advanced using a level-set methodmore »« less

Draft: Modeling Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media Including Fluid-Fluid Interfacial Area

Conference Crandall, Dustin ; Niessner, Jennifer ; Hassanizadeh, S Majid

We present a new numerical model for macro-scale twophase flow in porous media which is based on a physically consistent theory of multi-phase flow.The standard approach for modeling the flow of two fluid phases in a porous medium consists of a continuity equation for each phase, an extended form of Darcy’s law as well as constitutive relationships for relative permeability and capillary pressure. This approach is known to have a number of important shortcomings and, in particular, it does not account for the presence and role of fluid - fluid interfaces. An alternative is to use an extended model whichmore »« less
Dynamics of two-phase flow in porous media: Simultaneous invasion of two fluids

Journal Article Hashemi, M ; Dabir, B ; Sahimi, M - AIChE Journal

Models of two-phase flow and displacement in porous media developed so far typically involve one displacing (invader) and one displaced (defender) fluid. However, in many important applications of these phenomena at field scales, such as two-phase flow in fractured porous media, as well as in laboratory studies, require at least two invaders which also act as the defenders. The results of extensive Monte Carlo simulations of a novel model of such phenomena are reported. The porous medium is represented as a network of pore throats and pore bodies to which effective sizes are assigned that are selected from a givenmore »« less

Development of a mechanistic theory for drying of porous media using two-fluid, two-phase flow theory

Conference Lyczkowski, R W

A mechanistic phenomenological model for drying of porous media is established for a single representative pore by applying two-fluid, two-phase flow theory. The model rationally extends classical drying theory to handle rapid drying of moist solids where bulk motion of vapor and liquid water occurs within the drying matrix. Several new term appear in the model which may be important in the analysis of rapid drying phenomena. The new model was developed to gain insight into the moisture dynamics of wet Western United States coals undergoing underground coal gasification. Simplifications are made to compare with other theories and models proposedmore »« less
