This paper addresses the challenge of simulating multi-component fluid flow in complex porous structures, particularly when computational resolution is limited. The authors improve upon existing models by enhancing the handling of unresolved regions, improving interface dynamics, and incorporating detailed fluid behavior. The focus on practical rock geometries and validation through benchmark tests suggests a practical application of the research.
Key Takeaways
- •Improved modeling of unresolved regions in multi-scale porous structures.
- •Enhanced interface dynamics through controllable surface tension.
- •Accurate capture of irreducible fluid components.
- •Implementation of a tensorial resistivity model for heterogeneous structures.
- •Validation through benchmark tests on practical rock geometries.
