Can this software simulate and analyze the transition of flow through Porous Media? (Single Phase Flow)
Eclipse, a blackoil simulator that can be used to model one, two or threephases.
It’s a fully implicit simulator that can handle gas condensate options. It is suitable for laminar, transcient and turbulant flows

Hi Dr Maddali V S Murali Krishna
Thank you so much for your guidance.
Can I use water as the fluid of one phase flow or only this software can handle gas-condensate?
Adding up to the answer of Maddali V S Murali Krishna, ECLIPSE can handle such flow regime by using the Forchheimer beta factor to account for the inertial effects. In fact the correct name is Darcyt-Forchheimer, or simply Forchheimer flow regime instead of turbulent flow regime.
Hi dear Rodolfo Oliveria
Thanks for your answer. I want to simulate single phase flow through COARSE POROUS MEDIA. I need to use both of Darcy & Forchheimer equations. Do you think that ECLIPSE 100 is suitable for my project?
If your project (problem) is 1D or 2D isotropic and homogeneous you can use analytical solutions, but if the problem is 3-D Heterogeneous Eclipse will be suitable for your problem.
Indeed you can follow Carlos A. Grattoni suggestions.
I imagine you have access to ECLIPSE, so you can easily take a look on the Technical Description file that is shipped along with the software and take a closer look to equations currently implemented in the software and judge by yourself if it is suitable for the type of physical phenomena you plan to model.
Hello Dr Carlos A. Grattoni
Thanks a lot for your answer.
