There is a large number of various pressure diffusion models.
The popular classifications are summarized below:
Number of phases | Number of wells | Solver type | Spatial dimension |
---|---|---|---|
Single-phase | Single-well | Analytical Linear | 0D |
Multi-phase | Multi-well | Analytical Pseudo-Linear | 1D |
Numerical Linear | 2D | ||
Numerical Non-Linear | 3D |
In many practical cases a pressure diffusion process is honoring some PDE with constant coefficients availing a number of very efficient computational and diagnostic techniques:
Time Convolution | Spatial Superposition |
---|---|
Pressure convolution model | Pressure superposition model |
Pressure deconvolution model | Pressure decomposition model |
