Parallel numerical modeling of hybrid-dimensional compositional non-isothermal Darcy flows in fractured porous media
This paper introduces a new discrete fracture model accounting for
non-isothermal compositional multiphase Darcy flows and complex networks of
fractures with intersecting, immersed and non immersed fractures. The so called
hybrid-dimensional model using a 2D model in the fractures coupled with a 3D
model in the matrix is first derived rigorously starting from the
equi-dimensional matrix fracture model. Then, it is dis-cretized using a fully
implicit time integration combined with the Vertex Approximate Gradient (VAG)
finite volume scheme which is adapted to polyhedral meshes and anisotropic
heterogeneous media. The fully coupled systems are assembled and solved in
parallel using the Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD) paradigm with one layer
of ghost cells. This strategy allows for a local assembly of the discrete
systems. An efficient preconditioner is implemented to solve the linear systems
at each time step and each Newton type iteration of the simulation. The
numerical efficiency of our approach is assessed on different meshes, fracture
networks, and physical settings in terms of parallel scalability, nonlinear
convergence and linear convergence

Reactive Flows in Deformable, Complex Media
Many processes of highest actuality in the real life are described through systems of equations posed in complex domains. Of particular interest is the situation when the domain is changing in time, undergoing deformations that depend on the unknown quantities of the model. Such kind of problems are encountered as mathematical models in the subsurface, material science, or biological systems.The emerging mathematical models account for various processes at different scales, and the key issue is to integrate the domain deformation in the multi-scale context. The focus in this workshop was on novel techniques and ideas in the mathematical modelling, analysis, the numerical discretization and the upscaling of problems as described above

Many processes of highest actuality in the real life are described through systems of equations posed in complex domains. Of particular interest is the situation when the domain is variable, undergoing deformations that depend on the unknown quantities of the model. Such kind of problems are encountered as mathematical models in the subsurface, or biological systems. Such models include various processes at different scales, and the key issue is to integrate the domain deformation in the multi-scale context. Having this as the background theme, this workshop focused on novel techniques and ideas in the analysis, the numerical discretization and the upscaling of such problems, as well as on applications of major societal relevance today

Non-isothermal compositional liquid gas Darcy flow: formulation, soil-atmosphere boundary condition and application to high energy geothermal simulations
International audienceThis article deals with the modelling and formulation of compositional gas liquid Darcy flow. Our model includes an advanced boundary condition at the interface between the porous medium and the atmosphere accounting for convective mass and energy transfer, liquid evaporation and liquid outflow. The formulation is based on a fixed set of unknowns whatever the set of present phases. The thermody-namic equilibrium is expressed as complementary constraints. The model and its formulation are applied to the simulation of the Bouillante high energy geothermal field in Guadeloupe characterized by a high temperature close to the surface
ResFrac Technical Writeup
ResFrac is a combined hydraulic fracturing, reservoir, and hydraulic
fracturing simulator. It describes multiphase fluid flow (black oil or
compositional), proppant transport, transport of non-Newtonian fluid additives,
and thermal transport. It also includes stress shadowing from fracture
propagation and porothermoelastic responses from pressure change in the matrix.
It uses constitutive equations that smoothly transition between equations for
flow through an open crack to flow through a closed crack (with or without
proppant). This document provides a detailed technical description of the code,
along with validation simulations to confirm numerical accuracy
