摘要：

The mimetic finite difference (MFD) method, as a novel numerical method, has been successfully applied to CFD and reservoir simulation due to its local conservativeness and applicability of complex grids. It was applied to the numerical simulation of discrete fracture model. The principle of the MFD method was described in details, and the corresponding numerical formula of the discrete fracture model was developed. An IMPES scheme was used for the solution of a two-phase flow simulation, and several case studies were conducted to show the efficiency and robustness of the proposed numerical model.
