本文首次将离散变量(DV)-电路量子-经典物理信息神经网络(QCPINN)应用于四种典型油藏渗流模型:非均质单相流压力扩散方程、简化两相水驱的非线性Buckley-Leverett(BL)方程、考虑吸附的组分流动对流-扩散方程,以及具有指数渗透率分布的非均质油水两相耦合压力-饱和度方程。QCPINN结合经典预/后处理网络与DV量子核心,利用量子叠加与纠缠提升高维特征映射能力,并嵌入物理约束确保解的一致性。测试了三种量子电路拓扑(级联、交叉网格、交替),在四组数值实验中表明,QCPINN相比经典PINN具有更高预测精度。其中,交替拓扑在非均质单相流、BL方程及耦合两相流中表现最优;级联拓扑在对流-弥散-吸附耦合组分流动中更优;交叉网格拓扑在早期收敛和多场景平衡性能上具竞争力。本工作验证了QCPINN在油藏工程中的可行性,推动了量子计算研究与油气工业应用之间的桥梁建设。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In this paper, we adapt the Discrete Variable (DV)-Circuit Quantum-Classical Physics-Informed Neural Network (QCPINN) and apply it for the first time to four typical reservoir seepage models. These include the pressure diffusion equation for heterogeneous single-phase flow, the nonlinear Buckley-Leverett (BL) equation for simplified two-phase waterflooding, the convection-diffusion equation for compositional flow considering adsorption, and the fully coupled pressure-saturation two-phase oil-water seepage equation for heterogeneous reservoirs with exponential permeability distribution. The QCPINN integrates classical preprocessing/postprocessing networks with a DV quantum core, leveraging quantum superposition and entanglement to enhance high-dimensional feature mapping while embedding physical constraints to ensure solution consistency. We test three quantum circuit topologies (Cascade, Cross-mesh, Alternate) and demonstrate through four numerical experiments that QCPINNs achieve higher prediction accuracy than classical PINNs. Specifically, the Alternate topology outperforms others in heterogeneous single-phase flow, BL equation simulations and heterogeneous fully coupled pressure-saturation two-phase flow, while the Cascade topology excels in compositional flow with convection-dispersion-adsorption coupling. The Cross-mesh topology shows competitive early-stage convergence and accuracy across scenarios with balanced performance in coupled two-phase flow. Our work verifies the feasibility of QCPINN for reservoir engineering applications, bridging the gap between quantum computing research and industrial practice in oil and gas engineering.
