Multiphase Fluid Flow in Deformable Variable-Aperture Fractures - Final Report

Technical Report Detwiler, Russell

Fractures provide flow paths that can potentially lead to fast migration of fluids or contaminants. A number of energy-related applications involve fluid injections that significantly perturb both the pressures and chemical composition of subsurface fluids. These perturbations can cause both mechanical deformation and chemical alteration of host rocks with potential for significant changes in permeability. In fractured rock subjected to coupled chemical and mechanical stresses, it can be difficult to predict the sign of permeability changes, let alone the magnitude. This project integrated experimental and computational studies to improve mechanistic understanding of these coupled processes and develop and test predictivemore »« less

Theory of pressure-induced islands and self-healing in three-dimensional toroidal magnetohydrodynamic equilibria

Journal Article Bhattacharjee, A ; Hayashi, T ; Hegna, C C ; ... - Physics of Plasmas; (United States)

The role of singular currents in three-dimensional toroidal equilibria and their resolution by magnetic island formation is discussed from both analytical and computational points of view. Earlier analytical results are extended to include small vacuum islands, which may, in general, have different phases with respect to pressure-induced islands. In currentless stellarators, the formation of islands is shown to depend on the resistive parameter [ital D][sub [ital R]], as well as the integrated effect of global Pfirsch--Schlueter currents. It is demonstrated that the pressure-induced self-healing'' effect, recently discovered computationally, is also predicted by analytical theory.
