Transport of multicomponents in a fluid and numerical solution
by Peng, Juan, Ph.D., SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY, 2007, 64 pages; 3274550

Abstract:

In this dissertation, we consider the differential equation used to model the transaport of multicomponents in a fluid phase in a porous medium. We deal with the development of compositional fluid mixing simulators that enable the forward simulation of detailed reservoir charging and fluid property evolution, coupling the effects of advection, diffution, and gravity segregation to predict the development of compositional gradients in petroleum columns that can be used to constrain reservoir charging and alteration processed, we also reviewed available formulations for the scaled diffusion coefficient with tortusity.
