An Introduction to Reservoir Simulation Using MATLAB/GNU Octave from Part II - Single-Phase Flow
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 July 2019
This chapter explains how the mathematical models from Chapter 4 are implemented and integrated to form a full simulator. To this end, we introduce data structures to represent fluid behavior, the reservoir state, boundary conditions, source terms, and wells. We then explain in detail how the two-point flux approximation (TPFA) scheme is implemented in MRST for general unstructured grids. We also outline the basic solver used to compute time-of-flight and tracer partitions. We end the chapter by presenting a few examples that demonstrate how to set up simulations in MRST and set appropriate boundary conditions, source terms, or well models. The examples include the famous quarter-five spot problem, a corner-point grid with four intersecting faults, and a model of a shallow-marine reservoir (SAIGUP).
