Pore-Scale Dynamics of Liquid CO2–Water Displacement in 2D Axisymmetric Porous Micromodels Under Strong Drainage and Weak Imbibition Conditions: High-Speed μPIV Measurements

Journal Article Li, Yaofa ; Blois, Gianluca ; Kazemifar, Farzan ; ... - Frontiers in Water

Resolving pore-scale transient flow dynamics is crucial to understanding the physics underlying multiphase flow in porous media and informing large-scale predictive models. Surface properties of the porous matrix play an important role in controlling such physics, yet interfacial mechanisms remain poorly understood, in part due to a lack of direct observations. This study reports on an experimental investigation of the pore-scale flow dynamics of liquid CO ₂ and water in two-dimensional (2D) circular porous micromodels with different surface characteristics employing high-speed microscopic particle image velocimetry (μPIV). The design of the micromodel minimized side boundary effects due to the limited sizemore »« less

Pore-scale simulation of liquid CO2 displacement of water using a two-phase lattice Boltzmann model

Journal Article Liu, Haihu ; Valocchi, Albert J. ; Werth, Charles J. ; ... - Advances in Water Resources, 73:144-158

A lattice Boltzmann color-fluid model, which was recently proposed by Liu et al. [H. Liu, A.J. Valocchi, and Q. Kang. Three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model for immiscible two-phase flow simulations. Phys. Rev. E, 85:046309, 2012.] based on a concept of continuum surface force, is improved to simulate immiscible two-phase flows in porous media. The new improvements allow the model to account for different kinematic viscosities of both fluids and to model fluid-solid interactions. The capability and accuracy of this model is first validated by two benchmark tests: a layered two-phase flow with a viscosity ratio, and a dynamic capillary intrusion. Thismore »« less

Inertial Effects During the Process of Supercritical CO₂ Displacing Brine in a Sandstone: Lattice Boltzmann Simulations Based on the Continuum-Surface-Force and Geometrical Wetting Models

Journal Article Chen, Yu ; Valocchi, Albert J. ; Kang, Qinjun ; ... - Water Resources Research

Abstract Inertial effects during the process of supercritical CO ₂ displacing brine in porous media may not be negligible according to recent studies. Capturing the inertial effects of the physical CO ₂ ‐brine system imposes a requirement on the grid resolution and viscosity to surface tension ratio for pore‐scale simulations, which some commonly used simulators may not be able to meet. To fulfill the parameter requirement, we combine the continuum‐surface‐force based color‐gradient lattice Boltzmann (LB) multiphase model and the geometrical wetting model and extend the model to 3D under the multiple‐relaxation‐time framework. We validate the model via simple benchmarks whichmore »« less
