The GeochemFoam Project is the world's most advanced open source pore-scale numerical simulator based on OpenFOAM founded at the Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering at Heriot-Watt University in 2019 by Dr Julien Maes and Dr Hannah Menke. GeoChemFoam is made specifically for researching pore-scale processes related to the energy transition and our NetZero carbon future. Below is a list of current capabilities, but we are always adding new stuff and we welcome contributions from the community. Drop us a line at [email protected].

• Multiphase Reactive Transport (e.g. scCO2 dissolving in brine)

• Improved Multiphase solver (e.g. benchmarking viscous fingering in a micromodel)

• Two-phase flow at low capillary number (Ca=10^-7) (e.g. drainage & imbibition of oil in brine)

• Conjugate Heat Transfer (e.g. cold water injection into hot porous media)

• Improved Reactive Dissolution solver (e.g. acid-well stimulation and CCS)

• Contaminant transport (e.g. plume migration)

• Multi-species molecular reaction
