Hello all

I'm trying to simulate a fluid flow and heat transport using one of the state equations that relates density to temperature "ro (T)", using option 4 in the file (NNN.mfp) according to the tutorial "OpenGeoSys Tutorial Basics of Heat Transport Processes in Geothermal Systems "page 110, using the values (ro_0, betha_T, T_0) = (0.013000e + 000, 0.04, 200). First, the value of the reference density is not correct and second, the velocity values are very high. Can someone help me explain what my mistake is?

 

Thank you

 

I'm using OGS 5.

Hi,

 

Maybe you should write

$DENSITY

  4 0.013000e+000 200 0.04

 

instead of

$DENSITY

  4 0.013000e+000 0.04 200

 

best,

Nori

Hi,

 

Please check the storage and the permeability values in the MMP file.

 

$STORAGE

  1  2.000000e-001

$PERMEABILITY_TENSOR

  ISOTROPIC  2.50000e-005

 

The storage value S is defined as

S = porosity/(fluid bulk modulus) + (1- porosity)/(solid bulk modulus)

without considering the Biot parameter, and is typically 1e-10 ~ 1e-11 [1/Pa].

 

The permeability parameter for LIQUID_FLOW process is the intrinsic permeability, and its value could be e.g. 1e-12 m2 for high conductive materials.

 

 

Regards,

Nori

Please also check .mfp file

 $HEAT_CONDUCTIVITY
  1

In addition to Nori, please also check attachment, Page 18 (Equation 1.42). I am not sure how the storage term is defined in the source code.

One more issue, for same input files, I found some problems (e.g. LIQUID_FLOW &  HEAT_TRANSPORT) are running well in ogs5.3.4 but they are not running in ogs5.7. In one of my case, (H2M & heterogeneous medium with fracture), the H2 response is good but displacement vectors are very high, even though I used $NEGLECT_H_INI_EFFECT =2.

Mohammad

Thanks again. I have changed the values of the parameters
$ STORAGE 1 2.000000e-001 and
$ PERMEABILITY_TENSOR ISOTROPIC 2.50000e-005
to
$ STORAGE 1 2.000000e-010 and
$ PERMEABILITY_TENSOR ISOTROPIC 2.50000e-012
and the results are effectively consistent.

I only have one question, the density of the fluid should not be lower in regions where the temperature is higher?

regards

Please change the MFP file as

$DENSITY
4 0.013000e+000 200 -0.04

Here, you need to add a negative sign to the last parameter (fluid thermal expansion coefficient) to get the density decrease with increased temperature, because the OGS implements the density model 4 as

rho(T) = rho0*(1+alpha*(T-T0))

The last parameter in $DENSITY corresponds to "alpha".

Best,
Nori

Hello Nori, following your suggestions I changed the parameters to calculate density and the results are consistent.

Thanks for your advice
