Material properties of fluid affecting the fluid dynamics:



For  3-phase Oil + Gas + Water fluid model this will be:


OilGasWater
Density
Z-factor

Z_o = Z_o(T, p)

Z_g = Z_g(T, p)

Z_w = Z_w(T, p)

FVF
Compressibility

c_o = c_o(P, T)

c_g = c_g(P, T)

c_w = c_w(P, T)

Viscosity

\mu_g = \mu_g(P, T)

\mu_o = \mu_o (P, T)

\mu_w = \mu_w(P, T)

Specific heat capacity

c_{po} = c_{po}(P, T)

c_{pg} = c_{pg}(P, T)

c_{pw} = c_{pw}(P, T)

Thermal conductivity

\lambda_o = \lambda_o(P, T)

\lambda_g = \lambda_g(P, T)

\lambda_w = \lambda_w(P, T)

Oil-Gas exchange
Saturation pressure
