Exploring Enhanced Oil Recovery: A Comparative Study of Water and Air Injection with OpenFOAM’s multiphaseInterFoam Solver
Dive into the fascinating world of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with our latest exploration into Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques using OpenFOAM’s multiphaseInterFoam solver. In this insightful post, we simulate a micromodel fully saturated with oil and subject it to two different EOR strategies: water and air injection. Discover how these fluids interact with the oil, their impact on recovery efficiency, and the complex fluid dynamics at play. Whether you’re a CFD enthusiast or just curious about the science behind oil recovery, join us as we inject a dose of science into this intriguing subject. Ready to see science in action?
