The numerical method used to solve the incompressible two-phase flow equations is based on the mimetic method, which conserves the mass and fluxes simultaneously. The investigation showed that exclusion of capillarity can greatly underestimate the CO2 plume migration and resulted in distinctive reservoir pressure distribution. It is found that capillarity showed no significant effect on the flux intensity of CO2. © 2014 Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences. date: 2014 publisher: EDP Sciences official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84905011544&doi=10.1051%2fmatecconf%2f20141302001&partnerID=40&md5=821eb4037e1784e929e3ff58fb3aa504 id_number: 10.1051/matecconf/20141302001 full_text_status: none publication: MATEC Web of Conferences volume: 13 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur refereed: TRUE issn: 2261236X citation: Pau, J.S. and Pao, W.K.S. and Yong, S.P. and Memon, P.Q.
