Mathematical model and numerical analysis for leakage of fluid along geological fault during CO2 storage
brine and freshwater) along fault is a crucial issue that cannot be ignored during CO
2
geological storage. For this reason
the equations to describe the fluid leakage rate along faults in different stages are derived. Then
these equations are combined with mass and energy conservation equations to establish the fluid leakage model in CO
2
storage processes by considering geologically activated faults. In su
ch case
the crucial parameters (i.e.
leakage time and leakage amount) for fluid leakage along a fault are obtained. The results of the effects of different parameters on leakage time and amount show the advanced initial time of CO
2
leakage
the extended duration and the increased leakage amount of CO
2
with CO
2
injection rate and reservoir permeability increasing. Meanwhile
the initial time and duration of CO
2
leakage are unchanged while the leakage amount of CO
2
is increased
when increasing the fault permeability. In addition
the fault permeability has the greatest impact on the leakage amount of brine and freshwater
compared to CO
2
injection rate and reservoir permeability. The numerical results show that brine starts to leak earliest
followed by CO
2
freshwater. Meanwhile
the duration of CO
2
leakage along a fault is the longest
while the duration of brine leakage is the shortest. Additionally
the leakage amount of CO
2
is the largest
followed by brine leakage amount and the freshwater leakage amount.
