摘要

The understanding of the properties of two-phase flowrnin fractured rocks is central to the prediction ofrngeothermal reservoir performance. In this study, wernsuggest an alternative approach to describe the twophasernrelative permeability behavior in rough-walledrnfractures based on the two-phase flow structures. Thisrnapproach lumps the microscale physical mechanismrn(viscous and capillary forces) into an apparentrnobservable parameter, channel tortuosity, which wasrnfound to dominate the reduction of the relativernpermeabilities from the values that would be expectedrnbased on the X-curve. Three artificial fractures, smoothwalled,rnhomogeneously rough-walled and randomlyrnrough-walled fractures, were studied to represent distinctrnsurface geometry and heterogeneity. The experimentalrnresults from these three fractures could be describedrnsuccessfully by the proposed model. Furthermore, wernfound that the magnitude of the channel tortuosityrnincreases when the heterogeneity of the fracture surfacernincreases. Although only three simplified fractures werernstudied and the relationship between the flow-basedrnheterogeneity and the channel tortuosity is not fullyrndeveloped yet, we were able to derive an empirical,rntortuous channel model generalized from all channelrntortuosities from these three fractures. This model canrnrepresent the current experimental data and as well asrnobservations from earlier studies with good agreement.
