Abstract: Chapter 4 of the book "Petroleum Reservoir Simulations: A Basic Approach" is presented. It discusses the discretization of 1D, 2D, and 3D reservoirs using block-centered grids in Cartesian and radial-cylindrical coordinate systems. Included in this article is a description of the assembly of a block-centered grid for a reservoir and the relationships between block sizes, block boundaries, and distances between points representing blocks. A general flow equation that can be applied to both interior blocks and boundary blocks is also discussed.
