Impact of gravity and inertia on stable displacements of DNAPL in highly permeable porous media

Résumé

The flow of Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (DNAPL) in highly permeable porous media is characterized by a complex interplay between surface tension, viscous, gravity, and inertia forces. Gravitational e↵ects in these systems have been particularly studied in the context of displacement instability, but little work has focused on the impact of gravitational and inertia forces on the stable displacement of DNAPL in highly permeable but non-fractured porous media. Here, we study the impact of the gravity and Forchheimer numbers on the stable displacement of DNAPL fronts in porous media. We first performed DNAPL injection experiments in bead packings of di↵erent sizes for di↵erent inlet flow rates and initial saturation. These experiments were accurately modeled using a Darcy-Forchheimer model combined with an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian tracking of the DNAPL front. Once validated against stable injections in glass beads, the model was then used to
