Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorems for Multiphase Flow in Porous Media [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
A thermodynamic description of porous media must handle the size- and shape-dependence of media properties, in particular on the nano-scale. Such dependencies are typically due to the presence of immiscible phases, contact areas and contact lines.

Dynamic Fluid Connectivity Controls Solute Dispersion in Multiphase Porous Media Flow

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Solute transport in multiphase flow through porous media plays a central role in many natural systems and geoengineering applications. The interplay between fluid flow and capillary forces leads to transient flow dynamics and phase distributions. However,

Numerical analysis of water-alternating-CO2 flooding for CO2-EOR and storage projects in residual oil zones

open access: yesInternational Journal of Coal Science & Technology, 2023
Residual oil zones (ROZs) have high residual oil saturation, which can be produced using CO2 miscible flooding. At the same time, these zones are good candidates for CO2 sequestration.

Numerical Study of Elasto-Plastic Hydraulic Fracture Propagation in Deep Reservoirs Using a Hybrid EDFM–XFEM Method

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Rock yielding may well take place during hydraulic fracturing in deep reservoirs. The prevailing models based on the linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) are incapable of describing the evolution process of hydraulic fractures accurately.

Reconstruction of 3D multi-mineral shale digital rock from a 2D image based on multi-point statistics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Introduction: Shale oil and gas reservoirs contain a variety of inorganic and organic pores that differ significantly from conventional reservoirs, making traditional experiments ineffective.

Direct Visualization of Nanoscale Salt Precipitation and Dissolution Dynamics during CO2 Injection

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
CO2 injection to enhance shale oil recovery provides a win-win solution to meet the global fuel shortage and realize ultimate carbon neutrality. When shale reservoirs contain high salinity water, CO2 injection can result in salt precipitation to block ...

Pore-scale numerical simulation of supercritical CO2-brine two-phase flow based on VOF method

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2023
CO2 capture and storage technology is favorable for the reduction of CO2 emissions. In recent years, a great number of research achievements have been obtained on CO2 geological storage from nano scale to oil/gas reservoir scale, but most studies only ...

In Situ Deformation Analysis of a Fracture in Coal under Cyclic Loading and Unloading

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The deformation analysis of fractures is vital for advantageous development of oil and gas fields, especially the coalbed methane (CBM) reservoir, since the change of fracture parameters can be directly evaluated through fracture deformation analysis ...

An experimental study of the effect of motile bacteria on the fluid displacement in porous media [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
Multiphase flow patterns in porous media largely depend on the properties of the fluids and interfaces such as viscosity, surface tension, and contact angle.
