Hi Lorenzo,

I can only give you my take on it, others will most probably have differing 
perspectives. OPM and Dumux have close relations. Large parts of the reservoir 
simulator code in OPM is based on Dumux, and both projects have a preference 
for using Dune for grid and linear algebra. Dumux provides a broad toolkit for 
a number of flow processes beyond reservoir simulation. OPM has been more 
focused on industry needs, in particular black-oil formulations. Hence, OPM's 
reservoir simulator can work as a drop-in replacement for industry simulators, 
and consequently builds a bridge between the more academic efforts in Dumux and 
the industry. Actually, we specifically try to make it easy to combine code 
from OPM and Dumux, we want to enable joint efforts.

For your particular problem, OPM may be the better option, since it fits within 
the black-oil setting. You will find example models in our data-set repository, 
and in our test-data repository:
https://github.com/OPM/opm-data
https://github.com/OPM/opm-tests

Use the manual to edit one of these data-sets so that is fits your needs:

You probably do not need to build anything, unless you seek specific 
formulations to capture the fingering. We provide Ubutnu packages, and very 
soon a new release with all the latest and greatest goodies. Install 
instructions are here:
https://opm-project.org/?page_id=245

Check out Resinsight for your post-processing, installed from the same Ubuntu 
archive, documentation provided online here:
https://resinsight.org/

Good luck!
Alf

Subject: [Opm] about opm

Dear developers and users,

I recently discovered dumux and opm.

To me it is not clear what is the difference between these two codes, which 
relation among them?

Which is the most updated and maintained?


My task is to simulate viscous fingers due to water/oil interaction with 
Buckley-Leverett (2d at least) equations including capillarity effect with 
possibly injection/extraction. Is there any tutorial/example about this?

Which code should I use? Where to find the clearest installation/usage 
instructions for ubuntu (from source)


Kind regards,

Lorenzo Campoli
