Spatial Error and Convergence in Streamline Simulation

Abstract: Streamline models are routinely used for waterflood optimization and management and are being extended to more complex processes (e.g., compositional simulation). Despite these new developments, no systematic study has examined the underlying numerical spatial and temporal discretization errors in streamline simulation and their convergence. Such studies are a prerequisite to determining the optimal density of streamlines during simulation and ensuring the resulting accuracy of the solution.In this paper, we f… Show more

“…This was later extended to corner point cells by other authors [Cordes and Kinzelbach, 1992;Prévost et al, 2001;Jimenez et al, 2007] on the basis of the lowest-order RaviatThomas (RT 0 ) space and an isoparametric mapping. We will call this the Extended Pollock Method (EPM).…”

“…This is a semianalytical method that recovers the exit point of a streamline and the time of flight in an element of the mesh by assuming that each component of the velocity field varies linearly inside the element. The method, initially developed for rectangles, was extended to irregular grids [Prevost et al, 2002;Jimenez et al, 2005] by using the Piola transform of the velocity vector from the reference element to the physical one.…”
