Relative permeability as a stationary process: energy fluctuations in immiscible displacement
James E. McClure, Ming Fan, Steffen Berg +4
Relative permeability is commonly used to model immiscible fluid flow through porous materials. In this work we derive the relative permeability relationship from conservation of e…
Rate Dependency in Steady-State Upscaling
Lars Hov Odsæter, Carl Fredrik Berg, Alf Birger Rustad
Steady-state upscaling of relative permeability is studied for a range of reservoir models. Both rate-dependent upscaling and upscaling in the capillary and viscous limits are cons…
Permeability Description by Characteristic Length, Tortuosity, Constriction and Porosity
Carl Fredrik Berg
In this article we investigate the permeability of a porous medium as given in Darcy's law. The permeability is described by an effective hydraulic pore radius in the porous medium…
Re-examining Archie's law: Conductance description by tortuosity and constriction
Carl Fredrik Berg
In this article we investigate the electrical conductance of an insulating porous medium (e.g., a sedimentary rock) filled with an electrolyte (e.g., brine), usually described usin…
