## The modeling error of well treatment for unsteady flow in porous media

 1 School of Mathematics and Statistics, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, Gansu, China

Received  August 2014 Revised  November 2014 Published  July 2015

In petroleum engineering, the well is usually treated as a point or line source, since its radius is much smaller than the scale of the whole reservoir. In this paper, we consider the modeling error of this treatment for unsteady flow in porous media.
