Multicontinuum Homogenization for Coupled Flow and Transport Equations

In this paper, we present the derivation of a multicontinuum model for the coupled flow and transport equations by applying multicontinuum homogenization. We perform the multicontinuum expansion for both flow and transport solutions and formulate novel coupled constraint cell problems to capture the multiscale property, where oversampled regions are utilized to avoid boundary effects. Assuming the smoothness of macroscopic variables, we obtain a multicontinuum system composed of macroscopic elliptic equations and convection-diffusion-reaction equations with homogenized effective properties. Finally, we present numerical results for various coefficient fields and boundary conditions to validate our proposed algorithm.
