Numerical simulation of dynamic spontaneous imbibition with variable inlet saturation and interfacial coupling effects using Bentsen’s transport equation
Numerical simulation of dynamic spontaneous imbibition with variable inlet saturation and interfacial coupling effects using Bentsen’s transport equation
DownloadSpring 2010
In oil recovery from fractured reservoirs, Dynamic Spontaneous Imbibition (DSI) plays an important role. Conventional equations used to characterize DSI neglect interfacial coupling effects (ICE). Moreover, no numerical model has considered a variable inlet saturation (S) for DSI. An iteration...

Hydraulic fracturing treatment has been increasingly applied to stimulate shale gas reservoirs. During hydraulic fracturing, a large amount of fracturing water is injected into the target formation. However, only a small fraction of injected fluid, typically 10 to 20 %, can be recovered during...
