Abstract
The present disclosure provides for generating multiphase flow properties of porous media based on one or more input parameters. For instance, the multiphase flow properties may be a capillary pressure-saturation relationship for the porous media. The one or more input parameters include an interfacial tension along an interface between a wetting fluid and a non-wetting fluid, a contact angle between the interface and a pore wall of the porous media, and a pore throat size. The pore throat size is based on subparameters including a saturation of the wetting fluid, a saturation of the non-wetting fluid, a porosity of the porous media, and an orientation angle between a representative pore body size and a representative pore throat size.
