Two-phase flow properties upscaling in heterogeneous porous mediaFranc, Jacques 18 January 2018 (has links) (PDF)
The groundwater specialists and the reservoir engineers share the same interest in simulating multiphase flow in soil with heterogeneous intrinsic properties. They also both face the challenge of going from a well-modeled micrometer scale to the reservoir scale with a controlled loss of information. This upscaling process is indeed worthy to make simulation over an entire reservoir manageable and stochastically repeatable. Two upscaling steps can be defined: one from the micrometer scale to the Darcy scale, and another from the Darcy scale to the reservoir scale. In this thesis, a new second upscaling multiscale algorithm Finite Volume Mixed Hybrid Multiscale Methods (Fv-MHMM) is investigated. Extension to a two-phase flow system is done by weakly and sequentially coupling saturation and pressure via IMPES-like method.

Two-phase flow properties upscaling in heterogeneous porous media / Mise à l'échelle des propriétés polyphasiques d'écoulement en milieux poreux hétérogènesFranc, Jacques 18 January 2018 (has links)
L’étude des écoulements souterrains et l’ingénierie réservoir partagent le même intérêt pour la simulation d’écoulement multiphasique dans des sols aux propriétés intrinsèquement hétérogènes. Elles rencontrent également les mêmes défis pour construire un modèle à l’échelle réservoir en partant de données micrométriques tout en contrôlant la perte d’informations. Ce procédé d’upscaling est utile pour rendre les simulations faisables et répétables dans un cadre stochastique. Deux processus de mise à l’échelle sont définis: l’un depuis l’échelle micrométrique jusqu’à l’échelle de Darcy, et, un autre depuis l’échelle de Darcy vers l’échelle du réservoir. Dans cette thèse, un nouvel algorithme traitant du second upscaling Finite Volume Mixed Hybrid Multiscale Method (FV-MHMM) est étudié. L’extension au diphasique est faite au moyen d’un couplage séquentiel faible entre saturation et pression grâce à une méthode de type IMPES. / The groundwater specialists and the reservoir engineers share the same interest in simulating multiphase flow in soil with heterogeneous intrinsic properties.

A multi-resolution approach for modeling flow and solute transport in heterogeneous porous mediaGotovac, Hrvoje January 2009 (has links)
Subsurface processes are usually characterized by rare field experiments, sparse measurements,multi-resolution interpretations, stochastic description, related uncertainties and computational complexity. Over the last few decades, different computational techniques and strategies have become indispensable tools for flow and solute transport prediction in heterogeneous porousmedia. This thesis develops a multi-resolution approach based on Fup basis functions with compactsupport, enabling the use of an efficient and adaptive procedure, closely related to currentunderstood physical interpretation. All flow and transport variables, as well as intrinsic heterogeneity,are described in a multi-resolution representation, in the form of a linear combination ofFup basis functions. Each variable is represented on a particular adaptive grid with a prescribedaccuracy. The methodology is applied to solving problems with sharp fronts, and to solving flowand advective transport in highly heterogeneous porous media, under mean uniform flow conditions.The adaptive Fup collocation method, through the well known method of lines, efficientlytracks solutions with sharp fronts, resolving locations and frequencies at all spatial and/or temporalscales. The methodology yields continuous velocity fields and fluxes, enabling accurate andreliable transport analysis. Analysis of the advective transport proves the robustness of the firstordertheory for low and mild heterogeneity. Moreover, due to the accuracy of the improved Monte-Carlo methodology, this thesis presents the effects of high heterogeneity on ensembleflow and travel time statistics. The difference between Eulerian and Lagrangian velocity statisticsand the importance of higher travel time moments are indicative of high heterogeneity. The thirdtravel time moment mostly describes a peak and late arrivals, while higher moments are requiredfor early arrivals which are linked with the largest uncertainty. A particular finding is the linearityof all travel time moments, which implies that in the limit an advective transport in multi-Gaussian field becomes Fickian. By comparison, the transverse displacement pdf converges to aGaussian distribution around 20 integral scales after injection, even for high heterogeneity. Thecapabilities of the presented multi-resolution approach, and the quality of the obtained results,open new areas for further research. / Markprocesser karakteriseras ofta av fåtaliga fältexperiment, glesa mätningar, heterogenitet påolika skalor, slumpmässighet och relaterade osäkerheter, samt beräkningsmässiga svårigheter.Under de senaste årtiondena har olika beräkningstekniker och strategier blivit ovärderliga verktygför att förutspå vattenflöde och ämnestransport i heterogena porösa medier. Denna doktorsavhandling utvecklar ett angreppssätt med flerskaliga upplösningar baserat på Fup basis funktionermed kompakt stöd, som möjliggör en effektiv och anpassningsbar procedur, nära relaterad tillrådande fysiska tolkningar. Alla flödes- och transportvariabler, så väl som heterogeniteten, beskrivsav en flerskaligt upplöst representation, i form av linjära kombinationer av Fup basis funktioner.Varje variabel representeras på ett speciellt anpassningsbar gridnät med given noggrannhet.Metoden appliceras för att lösa problem med skarpa fronter, samt vattenflöde och advektivämnestransport i starkt heterogena porösa medier. Adaptive Fup collocation metoden tillsammansmed den välkända Method of lines, spårar effektivt lösningar med skarpa fronter och löserupp positioner och frekvenser på alla rums- och/eller tidsskalor. Metoden ger kontinuerliga hastighetsfältoch flöden, och möjliggör noggrann och tillförlitlig transportanalys. Analys av advektivtransport understöder stabiliteten i första-ordningens transport teori för låg och mild heterogenitet.Utöver detta, som resultat av noggrannheten i den förbättrade Monte-Carlo metodiken, visardenna avhandling effekten av hög heterogenitet på ensemble statistiken för flöden och transporttider.Skillnaden mellan Eulerisk och Lagrangian hastighetsstatistik och betydelsen av högrestatistiska moment för transporttider, indikerar hög heterogenitet. Det tredje transporttidsmomentetbeskriver huvudsakligen sannolikhetspiken och de långa transporttiderna, medan högremoment behövs för de korta transporttiderna, som har den största osäkerheten. En speciell upptäcktär linjäariteten i transporttidsmoment, som indikerar att advektiv transport i multi-Gaussiska fält blir Gaussisk i gränsen. Som jämförelse konvergerar sannolikhetsfunktioner förden transversella transportförflyttningen mot en Gaussisk fördelning vid runt 20 korrelationslängder efter injektion, även för hög heterogenitet. Förmågan i det presenterade angreppssättet med flerskalig upplösning, och resultatens noggrannhet, öppnar nya områden för fortsatt forskning. / QC 20100714

[en] NUMERICAL MODELLING OF TWO-PHASE FLOW AND CONTAMINANT TRANSPORT IN HETEROGENEOUS MEDIA / [pt] MODELAGEM NUMÉRICA DE FLUXO BIFÁSICO E TRANSPORTE DE CONTAMINANTES EM MEIOS POROSOSFABRICIO FERNANDEZ 18 April 2018 (has links)
[pt] O objetivo deste trabalho é ser uma contribuição ao entendimento dos mecanismos envolvidos na migração por gravidade dos compostos orgânicos chamados de DNAPLs, quando eles são liberados em meios porosos e em meios porosos fraturados, para aportar ao desenvolvimento de tecnologias efetivas orientadas principalmente à localização e à remediação do sistema subterrâneo contaminado. Primeiramente são apresentados os conceitos elementares envolvidos nos modelos matemáticos que descrevem o fluxo bifásico em meios porosos, o processo de modelagem de um problema geral da natureza, os modelos
conceituais, os matemáticos e os numéricos, e a aplicabilidade dos modelos conceituais conforme a considerações de escala. Em segundo lugar, são desenvolvidas as equações matemáticas que governam os fenômenos em estudo e são apresentadas as soluções às equações governantes a partir de técnicas
computacionais e esquemas de integração numérica. As equações do fluxo bifásico são resolvidas mediante técnicas de elementos finitos mistos hibridizados (EFHM) e elementos finitos descontínuos (GD), e as equações do transporte de contaminantes são resolvidas mediante a técnica dos elementos finitos
convencionais (EF). Seguidamente são avaliados numericamente problemas de transporte de contaminantes em 1D e 2D, problemas de transporte de contaminantes com transferência de massa, problemas de fluxo bifásico em 2D, e problemas acoplados envolvendo tanto fluxo bifásico como transporte de contaminantes com transferência de massa. Finalmente, são apresentadas as conclusões do trabalho desenvolvido bem como sugestões para trabalhos futuros. / [en] The objective of this work is to contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms involved in the gravity migration of organic compounds, called DNAPLs, when they are released in a porous media and in a fractured porous media, and to contribute to the development of effective technologies mainly oriented to the location and remediation of contaminated underground system. Firstly, some basic concepts are presented, especially those involved in the mathematical models that describe the two-phase flow in porous media, the conceptual models, the mathematical models, as well as the numerical models. Secondly, the mathematical equations that govern the phenomena under study are developed and the solutions to the governing equations from computational techniques and numerical integration schemes are presented. The biphasic flow equations are solved using mixed and hybridized finite element techniques (EFHM) and discontinuous finite element (GD), and the contaminant transport equations are solved by the conventional technique of finite element (FE). Then, some problems are numerically evaluated in 1D and 2D, such as transport of contaminants with and without mass transfer, two-phase flow problems in 2D, and attached problems involving both biphasic flow and contaminant transport with mass transfer. Finally, the conclusions of this thesis as well as the suggestions for future works are presented.

Étude de la macro-dispersion de particules inertes dans des milieux poreux 3D fortement hétérogènes / Study of the macro-dispersion of inert particles in highly heterogeneous 3D porous mediaDartois, Arthur 14 December 2016 (has links)
Les milieux poreux font partie des formations géologiques assez répandue dans la nature et son sujet d'études intensives. L'engouement de ce sujet vient des multiples secteurs d'applications de ces recherches et leur importance dans notre société. Que ce soit de la part des sociétés pétrolières qui souhaitent optimiser leurs moyens de productions, les agences de contrôles environnementaux qui veulent prévenir la contamination de nappe phréatique et la fuite de déchets nucléaires ou encore des industriels avec des problèmes de drainages et de réhabilitation de mines, tous ces acteurs dépendent des recherches faites dans ce domaine. Cependant, un des principaux problèmes de ce sujet est l'inaccessibilité des milieux que nous voulons étudier. Pour palier à cela de nombreuses équipes se sont tournées vers la simulation numérique. Cette thèse s'inscrit dans ce cadre et utilise le module PARADIS du logiciel d'hydrogéologie H2olab pour modéliser le transport de particules dans des milieux poreux fortement hétérogènes. Grâce aux données obtenues et à des comparaisons avec la littérature nous montrerons l'effet du passage au 3D sur la topologie de l'écoulement et les répercussions sur le transport de particules ainsi que l'effet de la diffusion moléculaire sur les coefficients de macro-dispersion. Enfin nous proposerons deux lois de transport reliant macrodispersion, variance du champ de perméabilité et diffusion moléculaire. / Heterogeneous porous media have been intensively studied these last fifty years. The popularity of this subject come from the multiple areas where these researches can be applied and their importance to our society. Whether from the oil companies that want to optimize their methods of production, environmental control agencies who want to prevent contamination of ground water and leakage of nuclear waste or industrial with drainage issues and mine rehabilitation, all these actors depend on research done in this area. However, one of the main problems of this subject is the accessibility of these porous media which are often several hundred meters underground. To overcome this, many teams have turned to computer simulation. This thesis is among them and uses the PARADIS module from the hydrogeology software H2olab to model particle transport in highly heterogeneous porous media. Thanks to the data obtained and comparisons with the literature, we show the impact of switching from a 2D to a 3D porous media on the ow topology and the repercussions on the particle transport. Furthermore, we also investigated the effect of molecular diffusion coefficients on macro-dispersion. Finally, we will propose two empirical functions linking macro-dispersion variance of the permeability field and molecular diffusion.

[en] NUMERICAL PROCEDURES FOR THE ANALYSIS OF TWO PHASE FLOW IN HETEROGENEOUS POROUS MEDIA / [pt] ANÁLISE DE PROCEDIMENTOS NUMÉRICOS PARA SIMULAÇÃO DE FLUXO BIFÁSICO EM MEIOS POROSOS HETEROGÊNEOSNATHALIA CHRISTINA DE SOUZA TAVARES PASSOS 07 July 2014 (has links)
[pt] A modelagem numérica precisa de reservatórios de petróleo ainda é um desafio, devido às heterogeneidades do meio poroso e à existência de estruturas geológicas com geometrias complexas, tais como: fraturas, estratificações e heterogeneidades, que influenciam decisivamente o escoamento dos fluidos através dessas formações. O presente trabalho analisa a implementação de duas formulações numéricas aplicadas ao fluxo bifásico em meios porosos em que se procura contornar as dificuldades mencionadas acima. Inicialmente, avalia-se uma formulação numérica que emprega um processo em três passos: o método dos elementos finitos, EF, para a solução da equação da pressão, intermediariamente,
utiliza-se o método de Raviart-Thomas de mais baixa ordem, RT 0, para melhor aproximação da velocidade, e a resolução da equação da saturação pelo método dos elementos finitos descontínuos, MEFD. Também é avaliada uma formulação na qual se utiliza o método dos elementos finitos mistos e híbridos, EFH, para
aproximar a equação da pressão, e o método MEFD para aproximar somente a equação de saturação. O estudo dessas formulações busca avaliar a conservação de massa e analisar o esforço computacional despendido. São apresentados exemplos que avaliam cada uma das formulações em comparação com resultados da literatura. / [en] Accurate numerical modeling of oil reservoirs is still a challenge due to heterogeneity of the porous medium and the existence of geological structures with complex geometries, such as fractures, stratifications and heterogeneities that decisively influence the flow of fluids through these formations. This paper analyzes two numerical formulations of two-phase flow that seek to circumvent the difficulties mentioned. Initially, it evaluates a numerical formulation that employs a three step process: the finite element method, for solving the pressure equation, intermediately, it uses the lowest-order Raviart-Thomas, RT 0,to the best approximation of the flow velocities, and finally the solution of the saturation equation by discontinuous finite element method (MEFD). Additionally, a formulation which utilizes the mixed and hybrid finite element method (EFH), to approximate the pressure equation, and uses MEFD to approximate the saturation equation. Both implemented formulations aim to assess the mass conservation and to analyze the necessary computational effort. Examples are presented which evaluate each of the formulations as compared with results existing in literature.

Uma nova abordagem numérica para a injeção de traçadores em reservatórios de petróleo / A new numerical approach for the injection of tracers in petroleum reservoirsThiago Jordem Pereira 27 February 2008 (has links)
Técnicas de injeção de traçadores são bastante utilizadas nos estudos de escoamentos em meios porosos heterogêneos, principalmente em problemas relacionados à simulação numérica de escoamentos miscíveis em reservatórios de petróleo e à dispersão de contaminantes em aqüíferos. Neste trabalho apresentamos novos algoritmos para a aproximação numérica do problema de injeção de traçadores. Apresentaremos desenvolvimentos recentes do método Forward Integral-Tube Tracking (FIT) que foi originalmente apresentado em Aquino et al. (2007a). O FIT é um método lagrangeano localmente conservativo utilizado na resolução de problemas de transporte linear. Este método não faz o uso de soluções de problemas de Riemann e baseia-se na construção dos tubos integrais introduzidas em Douglas Jr. et al. (2000b). Além disso, ele possui excelente eficiência computacional e é virtualmente livre de difusão numérica. Resultados numéricos são apresentados com o objetivo de comparar a precisão das soluções fornecidas por novas implementações do método FIT na resolução do problema do traçador em reservatórios de petróleo. / The injection of tracers are used in the investigation of flows in heterogeneous porous media, in studies related to the simulation of miscible dispacements in petroleum reservoirs and the dispersion of contaminants in aquifers. In this work we present new algorithms for the numerical approximation of tracer injection problems. We discuss recent developments of the Forward Integral-Tube Tracking (FIT) scheme which was introduced in Aquino et al. (2007a). The FIT is a locally conservative lagrangian scheme for the approximation of the linear transport problems. This scheme does not use analytic solutions of Riemann problems and is based on the construction of the integral tubes introduced in Douglas Jr. et al. (2000b). The FIT scheme is computationally very eficient and is virtually free of numerical diffusion. Numerical results are presented to compare the accuracy of the solutions provided by new implementation of the FIT scheme for the injection of tracers in petroleum reservoirs.

[pt] Esta tese propõe um método meshfree adaptativo de advecção para problemas de fluxo bifásico de fluidos incompressíveis e imiscíveis em meios porosos heterogêneos tridimensionais. Este método se baseia principalmente na combinação do método Semi-Lagrangeano adaptativo com interpolação local meshfree usando splines poliharmônicas como funções de base radial. O método proposto é uma melhoria e uma extensão do método adaptativo meshfree AMMoC proposto por Iske e Kaser (2005) para modelagem 2D de reservatórios de petróleo. Inicialmente este trabalho propõe um modelo em duas dimensões, contribuindo com uma melhoria significativa no cálculo do Laplaciano, utilizando os métodos meshfree de Hermite e
Kansa. Depois, o método é ampliado para três dimensões (3D) e para um meio poroso heterogêneo. O método proposto é testado com o problema de five spot e os resultados são comparados com os obtidos por sistemas bem conhecidos na indústria de petróleo. / [en] This thesis proposes an adaptive meshfree advection method for two-phase flow problems of incompressible and immiscible fluids through three-dimensional heterogeneous porous media. This method is based mainly on a combination of adaptive semi-Lagrangian method with local meshfree interpolation using polyharmonic splines as radial basis functions. The proposed method is an improvement and extension of the adaptive meshfree advection scheme AMMoC proposed by Iske and Kaser (2005) for 2D oil reservoir modeling. Initially this work proposes a model in two dimensions, contributing to a significant improvement in the calculation of the Laplacian, using the meshfree methods of Hermite and Kansa. Then, the method is extended to three dimensions (3D) and a heterogeneous porous medium. The proposed method is tested with the five spot problem and the results are compared with those obtained by well-known systems in the oil industry.
