An Integrally Embedded Discrete Fracture Model for Flow Simulation in Anisotropic Formations [PDF]
Energies, 2020 The embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM), among different flow simulation models, achieves a good balance between efficiency and accuracy. In the EDFM, micro-scale fractures that cannot be characterized individually need to be homogenized into the ...

Embedded Discrete Fracture Modeling as a Method to Upscale Permeability for Fractured Reservoirs [PDF]
Energies, 2019 Fractured reservoirs are distributed widely over the world, and describing fluid flow in fractures is an important and challenging topic in research. Discrete fracture modeling (DFM) and equivalent continuum modeling are two principal methods used to ...

An Improved Embedded Discrete Fracture Model with Fracture Growth for Water-Induced Fracture Simulation in Low Permeability Reservoirs [PDF]
Lithosphere, 2022 Water injection is often used to supply formation energy in low permeability reservoirs. A lot of field data shows that fractures nearby the wellbores may extend hundreds of meters because of the poor injectability which is called water-induced fractures.

An Online Generalized Multiscale Method for Embedded Discrete Fracture Model
AxiomsThis study concerns an online generalized multiscale method for flow in fractured porous media that is based on an embedded discrete fracture model. We first convert a two-point flux-approximation scheme into an equivalent discrete weak formulation that ...

Projection-based Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (pEDFM)
Advances in Water Resources, 2017 This work presents a new discrete fracture model, namely the Projection-based Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (pEDFM). Similar to the existing EDFM approach, pEDFM constructs independent grids for the matrix and fracture domains, and delivers strictly conservative velocity fields.

Local Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (LEDFM)
Advances in Water Resources, 2023 The study of flow in fractured porous media is a key ingredient for many geoscience applications, such as reservoir management and geothermal energy production. Modelling and simulation of these highly heterogeneous and geometrically complex systems require the adoption of non-standard numerical schemes. The Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) is a

Numerical Simulation of Embedded Discrete-Fracture Seepage in Deep Carbonate Gas Reservoir
Energies, 2022 Existing fractured gas reservoir development techniques are mainly based on dual medium numerical-simulation models, which can, to a certain extent, effectively simulate natural fractures with high fracture density; however, these models have some ...
