Title: Experimental Investigation and High Resolution Simulator of In-Situ Combustion Processes

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/890619· OSTI ID:890619

Accurate simulation of in-situ combustion processes is computationally very challenging because the spatial and temporal scales over which the combustion process takes place are very small. In this current and eleventh report, we report on the development of a virtual kinetic cell (VKC) that aids the study of the interaction between kinetics and phase behavior. The VKC also provides an excellent tool for developing and testing specialized solvers for the stiff kinetics encountered in ISC processes.
