In this paper, we consider a non-local (in time) two-phase flow model. The non-locality is introduced through the wettability alteration induced dynamic capillary pressure function. We present a monotone fixed-point iterative linearization scheme for the resulting non-standard model. The scheme treats the dynamic capillary pressure functions semi-implicitly and introduces an $L$-scheme type cite{List2016, Radu2015} stabilization term in the pressure as well as the transport equations. We prove the convergence of the proposed scheme theoretically under physically acceptable assumptions and verify the theoretical analysis with numerical simulations. The scheme is implemented and tested for a variety of reservoir heterogeneity in addition to the dynamic change of the capillary pressure function. The proposed scheme satisfies the predefined stopping criterion within a few numbers of iterations. We also compared the performance of the proposed scheme against the iterative IMplicit Pressure Explicit Saturation scheme
A high-performance gas kinetic solver using multi-level parallelization is developed to enable pore-scale simulations of rarefied flows in porous media. The Boltzmann model equation is solved by the discrete velocity method with an iterative scheme.
This paper addresses how two time integration schemes, the Heuns scheme for explicit time integration and the second-order Crank-Nicolson scheme for implicit time integration, can be coupled spatially. This coupling is the prerequisite to perform a c
Deformable elastic bodies in viscous and viscoelastic media constitute a large portion of synthetic and biological complex fluids. We present a parallelized 3D-simulation methodology which fully resolves the momentum balance in the solid and fluid do
Slow flow of a single fluid through a porous medium is well understood on a macroscopic level through Darcys law, a linear relation between flow rate and a combination of pressure differences, viscosity, and gravitational forces. Two-phase flow is co
We present a theoretical framework for immiscible incompressible two-phase flow in homogeneous porous media that connects the distribution of local fluid velocities to the average seepage velocities. By dividing the pore area along a cross-section tr
