Abstract
A method includes selecting a model for a simulation of hydrocarbon recovery from a reservoir having a plurality of fractures during injection of an injected gas into the plurality of fractures. Selecting the model includes determining a flux ratio of a convection rate to a diffusion rate for the reservoir, determining whether the flux ratio is less than a threshold, and in response to the flux ratio being less than the threshold, selecting the model that includes diffusion. Selecting the model includes performing the simulation of the hydrocarbon recovery from the reservoir based on the model.
