Analyze the results to understand the behavior of the fluid and the deformation of the rock. Flow 3D allows for the visualization of fluid flow, pressure distributions, and structural deformations.
Several case studies and examples demonstrate the effectiveness of FLOW-3D Hydro Crack Top in simulating and analyzing hydraulic fracturing processes. For instance:
: Allows for highly detailed 3D modeling at a specific site (like a breach or crack location) while using efficient 2D modeling for the larger surrounding area. Modeling Capabilities | The FLOW-3D Product Family flow 3d hydro crack top
To model the precise moment water breaks through or destabilizes a structural asset, the platform integrates proprietary algorithms designed for sharp interface tracking.
Assign erodible properties to the dam body, defining critical shear stress for erosion to simulate cohesive or non-cohesive failure. Analyze the results to understand the behavior of
If you are looking to set up such a simulation, the typical workflow includes:
supports advanced meshing, such as nested meshes, allowing for high resolution specifically around the crack area, ensuring that tiny details of the crack opening are captured without needing excessive computing power for the entire model 1.2.1.
