A Numerical Simulator for Flow and Transport in Stochastic Discrete Fracture Networks by Alain Rouleau,National Hydrology Research Institute (Canada) Pdf

"This report describes a stochastic discrete fracture (SDF) modelling package that simulates ground-water flow and mass transport in fracture systems. The program NETWRK generates two-dimensional fracture networks with a Monte Carlo method based on the statistics of field data on fracture geometry, i.e., fracture orientation, trace length, aperture, and density. The program APEGEN can be used to generate supplementary aperture distributions for the fracture network generated by NETWRK. A third program, NETFLO, computes the steady-state fluid flow through the fracture network generated by NETWRK and APEGEN. NETFLO also computes the statistic s of selected parameters in every ten-degree range of direction, including the total length of fracture segments, the total flow velocity, and the total flow rate. The latter directional parameters are used by the program NETRANS to compute the transit time of particles over an arbitrary distance using a second-level stochastic process"--Abstract, p. vi.

Watershed Research in the U.S. Geological Survey by National Research Council,Division on Earth and Life Studies,Commission on Geosciences, Environment and Resources,Committee on U.S. Geological Survey Pdf

Watershed research is conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to expand our understanding of basic hydrologic mechanisms and their responses at the watershed scale and to provide information that serves as the basis for water and environmental management activities carried out largely by other governmental and private entities. The work of the USGS in this area is carried out by its Water Resources Division and occurs in three general program areas: basic research, regional and site assessments, and data collection. These activities are becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of water and environmental management, where contemporary problems are being approached more than ever on an integrated ecosystems or watershed basis and where the underlying physical, chemical, and biological science is complex. Although the value of this type of hydrologic research is well recognized within the USGS, available financial resources to support it remain modest. Thus, this study seeks to help maximize the effectiveness of the agency's work. The study took two years, during which time the committee visited field sites, received briefings, reviewed descriptive materials, deliberated toward conclusions, and wrote this report. Recommendations are intended to assist the USGS in improving its overall strategy for work in this area; descriptions of a number of scientific opportunities are included, and appropriate circumstances for collaboration with and support for others are identified.

Advances in Transport Phenomena in Porous Media by Jacob Bear,M.Y. Corapcioglu Pdf

This volume contains the lectures presented at the NATO ADVANCED STUDY INSTITUTE that took place at Newark, Delaware, U. S. A. , July 14-23, 1985. The objective of this meeting was to present and discuss selected topics associated with transport phenomena in porous media. By their very nature, porous media and phenomena of transport of extensive quantities that take place in them, are very complex. The solid matrix may be rigid, or deformable (elastically, or following some other constitutive relation), the void space may be occupied by one or more fluid phases. Each fluid phase may be composed of more than one component, with the various components capable of interacting among themselves and/or with the solid matrix. The transport process may be isothermal or non-isothermal, with or without phase changes. Porous medium domains in which extensive quantities, such as mass of a fluid phase, component of a fluid phase, or heat of the porous medium as a whole, are being transported occur in the practice in a variety of disciplines.

Embedded Discrete Fracture Modeling and Application in Reservoir Simulation by Kamy Sepehrnoori,Yifei Xu,Wei Yu Pdf

The development of naturally fractured reservoirs, especially shale gas and tight oil reservoirs, exploded in recent years due to advanced drilling and fracturing techniques. However, complex fracture geometries such as irregular fracture networks and non-planar fractures are often generated, especially in the presence of natural fractures. Accurate modelling of production from reservoirs with such geometries is challenging. Therefore, Embedded Discrete Fracture Modeling and Application in Reservoir Simulation demonstrates how production from reservoirs with complex fracture geometries can be modelled efficiently and effectively. This volume presents a conventional numerical model to handle simple and complex fractures using local grid refinement (LGR) and unstructured gridding. Moreover, it introduces an Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) to efficiently deal with complex fractures by dividing the fractures into segments using matrix cell boundaries and creating non-neighboring connections (NNCs). A basic EDFM approach using Cartesian grids and advanced EDFM approach using Corner point and unstructured grids will be covered. Embedded Discrete Fracture Modeling and Application in Reservoir Simulation is an essential reference for anyone interested in performing reservoir simulation of conventional and unconventional fractured reservoirs. Highlights the current state-of-the-art in reservoir simulation of unconventional reservoirs Offers understanding of the impacts of key reservoir properties and complex fractures on well performance Provides case studies to show how to use the EDFM method for different needs
