Fractional radial-cylindrical diffusivity model for levels of heterogeneity in petroleum reservoirs

Fractional radial-cylindrical diffusivity model for levels of heterogeneity in petroleum reservoirs

Abstract The generalized Taylor’s Formula is used to derive a fractional radial-cylindrical diffusivity model via a fractional conservation of mass in radial geometry in a petroleum reservoir. The result is a space-fractional generalization of the diffusivity model with an arbitrary order that expla...
