The contents are:
Theory of multiphase flow in porous media
- Derivation of the differential equations
- Constitutive relations
Numerical solution of the multiphase flow equation
- Box method
- Linearisation
- Time discretisation
Multicomponent systems
- Thermodynamic fundamentals and non-isothermal processes
Application examples:
