About This Lesson
- The current CFD Analysis Validates the Paper ‘Field-Scale Numerical Investigation of Proppant Transport among Multicluster Hydraulic Fractures’ via ANSYS Fluent software.
- We have designed the geometry using ANSYS Design Modeler software and generated the mesh on this geometry using ANSYS Meshing software. The mesh type is structured.
- The Eulerian multiphase model is used to simulate the proppant.
- The Dense Discrete phase model (DDPM) is used in the simulation.
- The Saffman lift force, virtual mass force, and two-way turbulence coupling models are taken into account.
