DEM-CFD Modeling of Proppant Pillar Deformation and Stability during the Fracturing Fluid Flowback
In this study, proppant pillar deformation and stability during the fracturing fluid flowback of channel fracturing was simulated with DEM-CFD- (discrete element method-computational fluid dynamics-) coupling method. Fibers were modeled by implementing the bonded particle model for contacts between...
