Application of Additive Corrective Techniques to an IMPES Formulation Using the BOAST Simulator.
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- In 1971 Watts presented the one-dimensional correction method to improve the efficiency of iterative matrix solution techniques. In 1972 Aziz & Settari improved this method by extending it to two dimensions. Watts' method is referred t o as the 1DC method and Aziz & Settari's as the 2DC method. Both methods have been shown to increase efficiency for large anisotropic problems.However, this has only been substantiated for single phase heat flow type problems. In this work the 2DC method has been applied to a line successive over relaxation (LSOR) iterative solution for the system of pressure equations in an Implicit Pressure-Explicit Saturation (IMPES) type formulation using an existing black oil model.In this report results of numerical experiments using 2DC methods in conjunction with an IMPES Formulation, i.e. the BOAST Simulator, are presented for multiphase flow which show increased efficiency over plain LSOR.
