Abstract
A simplified mathematical model of two-phase multicomponent flow in the reservoir— multistage hydraulic fractures—horizontal well system is proposed. The formulation of transport problems in the well and in hydraulic fractures is simplified based on the dimensional analysis and similarity theory. The possibility of transition to a quasi-steady-state problem of distribution of the mixture components in high-permeability hydraulic fractures is shown. The dimension of the problem in reservoir is reduced by decomposing the problem into a set of problems in independent fixed stream tubes. For numerical solution of the problem, the resulting reduction in computer time reaches two orders of magnitude and can be further reduced by using parallel computing. Accelerating the solution of the direct problem is fundamentally necessary for the possibility of solving the inverse problem of identifying the porosity and permeability properties of fractures from the results of interpretation of tracer studies.
期刊介绍:
Fluid Dynamics is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes theoretical, computational, and experimental research on aeromechanics, hydrodynamics, plasma dynamics, underground hydrodynamics, and biomechanics of continuous media. Special attention is given to new trends developing at the leading edge of science, such as theory and application of multi-phase flows, chemically reactive flows, liquid and gas flows in electromagnetic fields, new hydrodynamical methods of increasing oil output, new approaches to the description of turbulent flows, etc.
