Abstract

The aim of this research is the design and implementation of an integrated framework to solve numerically the two-dimensional convection diffusion equations on non-rectangular grids formed only by quadrilaterals honoring the internal structures of an oil reservoir. The framework is composed of (1) a preprocessor of the internal boundaries of a 2D oil reservoir structure, (2) a 2D structural quadrilateral grid generator, (3) a solver of the 2D convection diffusion equation (CDE) on the grid, and (4) a visualization module to display the reservoir properties, wells and the simulation results on the grid. An example of typical structures corresponding to an areal view of a hydrocarbon reservoir is presented. Different scenarios were considered varying boundary conditions, source term, and diffusion constant fluid velocity. All the results are consistent with the physical interpretation of each configuration.
