Abstract: | A kind of second-order implicit fractional step characteristic finite difference method is presented in this paper for the numerically simulation coupled system of enhanced(chemical) oil production in porous media.Some techniques,such as the calculus of variations,energy analysis method,commutativity of the products of difference operators,decomposition of high-order difference operators and the theory of a priori estimates are introduced and an optimal order error estimates in l~2 norm is derived.This method has been applied successfully to the numerical simulation of enhanced oil production in actual oilfields,and the simulation results are quite interesting and satisfactory. |
