Abstract Motivated by the fractures being very thin compared to the size of rock matrix, utilizing the non-conforming grid is an efficient approach to simulate fluid flow in fractured porous media. The embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) is the typical one that using the conforming grid and modelled based on the finite volume method (FVM) framework. The EDFM maintains advantages of mass conservation and low computational complexity, but it cannot characterize blocking fractures and has a low accuracy on the mass exchange between fractures and matrix [1]. In our previous work [2], we developed the enriched-EDFM… More >
