Coupling of a two phase gas liquid compositional 3D Darcy flow with a 1D compositional free gas flow

International audienceA model coupling a three dimensional gas liquid compositional Darcy flow and a one dimensional compositional free gas flow is presented. The coupling conditions at the interface between the gallery and the porous media account for the molar normal fluxes continuity for each component, the gas liquid thermodynami-cal equilibrium, the gas pressure continuity and the gas and liquid molar fractions continuity. This model is applied to the simulation of the mass exchanges at the interface between the repository and the ventilation excavated gallery in a nuclear waste geological repository. The convergence of the Vertex Approximate Gradient discretization is analysed for a simplified model coupling the Richards approximation in the porous media and the gas pressure equation in the gallery

A domain decomposition method to couple nonisothermal compositional gas liquid Darcy and free gas flows

International audienceA domain decomposition algorithm is introduced to couple nonisothermal compositional gas liquid Darcy and free gas flow and transport. At each time step, our algorithm solves iteratively the nonlinear system coupling the nonisothermal compositional Darcy flow in the porous medium, the RANS gas flow in the free-flow domain, and the transport of the species and of energy in the free-flow domain. In order to speed up the convergence of the algorithm, the transmission conditions at the interface are replaced by Robin type boundary conditions. The Robin coefficients are obtained from a diagonal approximation of the Dirichlet to Neumann operator related to a simplified model in the neighbouring subdomain. The efficiency of our domain decomposition algorithm is assessed on several test cases focusing on the modeling of the mass and energy exchanges at the interface between the geological formation and the ventilation galleries of geological radioactive waste disposal

Coupling compositional gas liquid Darcy and free gas flows at porous and free flow domains interface

International audienceThis paper proposes an efficient splitting algorithm to solve coupled liquid gas Darcy and free gas flows at the interface between a porous medium and a free-flow domain. This model is compared to the reduced model introduced in \cite{BMTZ-fvca7} using a 1D approximation of the gas free flow. For that purpose, the gas molar fraction diffusive flux at the interface in the free-flow domain is approximated by a two point flux approximation based on a low frequency diagonal approximation of a Steklov-Poincar\'e type operator. The splitting algorithm and the reduced model are applied in particular to the modelling of the mass exchanges at the interface between the storage and the ventilation galleries in radioactive waste deposits
