Sažetak
Multiphase flow in porous media is characterized by zones of sharp gradients that include development of sharp interfaces and narrow transition zones. Numerical modeling of these problems usually shows difficulties to resolve all space and temporal scales, numerical oscillations and artificial dispersion and obviously needs a demanding computational request with very fine grid and small time steps. Adaptive numerical modeling is one of the most promising options. In the last decade adaptive collocation methods have become very popular due to using a highly localized basis functions as wavelets or splines. In this paper we present less known localized Fup (Finite up function) basis functions with compact support and Adaptive Fup Collocation Method (AFCM) appropriate for application to multiphase flow problems in porous media. Numerical procedure is designed through a well-known method of lines (MOL). Space discretization and grid adaptation are obtained by Fup collocation transform and corresponding adaptive strategy, while time integration is reduced to solving system of differential-algebraic equations. Furthermore, the method enables adaptive multilevel evolution of solution with all resolved spatial and temporal scales and desired level of accuracy using the whole family of Fup basis functions. Numerical method is tested and verified with classic Buckley-Leverett 1-D multiphase flow problem in porous media.
