v0.2.41

JutulDarcy v0.2.41

Diff since v0.2.40

The new release comes with two new major features (improved geothermal support and support for tracers) as well as numerous smaller improvements to code and documentation.

New features

• Expanded geothermal features, including borehole thermal energy storage (BTES) support and automatic setup of property tables with support for salinity.
• Several new geothermal examples (see next section). Code.
• Support for single phase and multiphase tracers that can have per-tracer custom behavior and interact with other properties of the system.
• A validated polymer model (viscosity changes, dead pore space, permability reduction, adsorption) that makes use of the new tracer functionality.
• Routines to rebuild an existing reservoir model with for example new wells or changed properties. This is useful when you have loaded a complex model from input files and want to alter it without changing the input file.
• Docs have been restructured and revised.

New examples

Workflow examples

• Adding tracers to a flow simulation
• Adding new wells to an existing model

Validation examples

• Polymer injection in a 2D black-oil reservoir model
• Aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) validation

Geothermal examples

• Borehole Thermal Energy Storage (BTES)
• Geothermal doublet
• High-temperature Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (HT-ATES)

Improvements

• Improved performance for some BLAS versions
• Examples have been reorganized by topic, both in the code and in the documentation to make navigation easier
• Many fixes and improvements to thermal well setup, including additional parameters exposed for sensitivity analysis
• Support for SLGOF keyword
• Bumped Makie compatibility
