CFD-DEM methods for simulations of proppants transport in hydraulic fractures
As part of my speech, I will present all the issues that I dealt with during the ShaleMech project. I will discuss the concept of CFD-DEM method in approach of resolved and unresolved, the way to take into account the effect of particle rotation in simulation and the model of particle collision correction in two-phase systems. In the final part, I will present applications of the CFD-DEM method for simulation of proppants transport in various systems and the use of the CFD-DEM method for studying porous systems.
