Question

This is a group assignment due Thursday. The papers can be found for free at OnePetro.org. Except for the first problem, start from the fundamental component mass balance equation for a phase as shown below. Do one assumption at a time and write the result. Then do the next assumption and so forth. Please circle each assumption made. 1/A_x partial differential/partial differential x (omega_ij rho_j k_x k_rj A_x/mu_j partial differential Phi_j/partial differential x) + (omega_ij rhi_j q_j)_well/V_b + r_mij = partial differential/partial differential t (Phi S_j mega_ij rhjo_j) i = 1 ... N_c j = 1 ... N_p List all assumptions made to derive the above fundamental equation. This will be your starting point for problems 2 - 5, and you do not need to list these assumptions again.

Explanation / Answer

Few systems can get very complicated for representing in a mass balance equation. Therefore, few basic assumptions are necessary to simplify the calculations as appropriate. Some of the basic assumptions in the above fundamental equation are:
