Problem 5. Pure CO2 displacing pure H20. Consider the fluid property data given in Table 1 for the CO2/H2O system at 50C and 9.0 MPa. Assume that the relative permeability functions of problem 3 apply with See = 0.10 and Swe = 0.20. Calculate and plot the composition profile as a function of It for two differing assumptions about density behavior: (1) when the volume occupied by each component is the pure component volume no matter what phase the component appea in, and (2) when the equilibrium phases assume the densities given in Table 1. Assur that the phase compositions in mole fractions given in Table 1 are correct for both ca Calculate and plot recovery curves as a function of pore volumes of CO2 injected for two density assumptions.
