Modeling of Two-Phase Fluid Flow in Fractured Reservoirs Using Extended Finite Element Method, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khoei, Amir Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
A fully coupled numerical model is developed for the modeling of the cracks in porous media with flow of two fluids using the extended finite element method.The governing equations of two-phase fluid flow in deformable porous media, which account for the coupling between various physical phenomena, are derived within the framework of the generalized Biot theory. The solid phase displacement, the wetting phase pressure and the capillary pressure are taken as the primary variables of the formulation. The other variables are incorporated into the model via the experimentally determined functions that specify the relationship between the hydraulic properties of the porous medium, i.e....
