How to calculate the water saturation in the period of water injection to reservior?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I just start to learn COMSOL4.2a.I want to simulate the process of water injection in oil production.
Two phase darcy flow is applied in reservior.When water is injected to the reservior at the constant flow rate,the water saterution rises and the oil phase's relative permeability reduces.
In comsol 3.5a,there is a sample of two_phase_flow_oil_water.In that case,the water saturation is calculated by Capillary pressure.In this case,capillary pressure is neglected and water saturation can not be calculated in this method.
Is there a simple way to obtain the water saturation?
Thanks.

Hi Qingmin,

I am going to do the same job as you did; two phase flow simulation. In particular simulating waterflood.
However, I do not have any idea how to do it. I did some single phase fluid flow simulation in COMSOL but not two-phase so far. Would you please help me on that? I have access to COMSOL 4.2. Would you mind to share your model with me?

Any input is highly appreciated,

Best regards,
saeid
