The Petroleum Components Properties Card is used to define properties for user defined petroleum components. Petroleum components are unique names created by the user. Properties for components are either entered explicitly or by grouping, via mole or mass fraction weighting, pre-defined petroleum fractions into petroleum components. The currently implementation of the data base, held in the file "petrol_prop.dat" contains 73 petroleum fractions. The number of petroleum components, beyond CH4 and CO2, is declared in the Solution Control Card. Petroleum component properties must be declared, either explicitly or by grouping pre-defined petroleum fractions.
Formatting instructions for specifying the petroleum component properties are provided on the Petroleum Components Properties Syntax page.
Examples of Petroleum Components Properties Cards for STOMP-EOR are provided on the Petroleum Components Properties Examples page.
