Description
- Explains exergy return on exergy invested (ERoEI) so that the reader can make his own judgements as to the costs of recovering energy from conventional and non-conventional resources
- Deals with single phase flow aspects (inertia, anisotropy, slip), which admittedly are covered in other textbooks, but out of the contexts of petroleum and environmental engineering.
- Gives readers the tools to generate heterogeneous permeability fields (stochastic random fields, marked point processes, Markov chains, which makes it possible to evaluate the effects of heterogeneity on flow
- Includes an elaborate section on surface chemistry to understand wetting behaviour and its influence on the relative permeability and capillary pressure behaviour
- Derives effective permeabilities and relative permeabilities in upscaled models and illustrates this with examples in EXCEL
