摘要

A new algorithm is presented for simulating volume-controlled invasion of a non-wetting phase into voxel images. This method is complementary to the traditional morphological image opening method which mimics pressure-based invasion. A key advantage of the volume-based approach is that fluid configuration at any saturation between 0 and 1 can obtained rather than the irregularly and widely spaced saturation steps obtained by pressure-based methods. Because of the incremental increases in saturation, it becomes possible to correctly predict defending phase trapping, which is not the case when pressure-based steps are applied. The algorithm is verified by comparing to morphological image opening and obtains near perfect agreement at equal saturations as expected from theory. It is also demonstrated that a volume-controlled capillary pressure curve can be obtained that displays the characteristic jumps in capillary pressure. Moreover, the envelop of peak pressures yields the pressure-based capillary pressure obtained by morphological opening, so in fact the results of the proposed algorithm are a superset of the morphological approach. Finally, results are compared to multiphase lattice Boltzmann and qualitatively similar results were achieved in substantially less time. The lattice Boltzmann method is more flexible in terms of variable contact angle and inclusion of viscous effects, but for quasi-static volume-based injection of a non-wetting fluid, the proposed method is viable alternative.
