Modified Method Of Characteristics

This paper studies and analyzes a model describing the flow of contaminated brines through the porous media under severe thermal conditions caused by the radioactive contaminants. The problem is approximated based on combining the mixed finite element method with the modified method of characteristics. In order to solve the resulting algebraic nonlinear equations efficiently, a two-grid method is presented and discussed in this paper. This approach includes a small nonlinear system on a coarse grid with size H and a linear system on a fine grid with size h . It follows from error estimates that asymptotically optimal accuracy can be obtained as long as the mesh sizes satisfy H = O h 1 / 3 .

The incompressible miscible displacement problem in porous media is modeled by a coupled system of two nonlinear partial differential equations, the pressure-velocity equation and the concentration equation. In this paper, we present a mixed finite volume element method (FVEM) for the approximation of the pressure-velocity equation. Since modified method of characteristics (MMOC) minimizes the grid orientation effect, for the approximation of the concentration equation, we apply a standard FVEM combined with MMOC. A priori error estimates in L∞(L2) norm are derived for velocity, pressure and concentration. Numerical results are presented to substantiate the validity of the theoretical results.
