Models for Simulation of Flow and Transport of Fluids and Heat in Porous Media

Catalog description

Credits 4. 3 Lecture Hours. 3 Lab Hours. Design and develop numerical simulators that describe flow of reservoir fluids and transport of heat through porous media; develop multi-dimensional models capable of handling single mass components (gas, oil or water) in single phases (liquid or vapor). Prerequisites: PETE 603 or approval of instructor; experience in FORTRAN or another programming language; solid understanding of physical processes of flow and transport through porous media, numerical analysis and linear algebra; graduate classification.
