- We consider single-phase flow in a fractured porous medium governed by Darcy's law with spatially varying hydraulic conductivity matrices in both bulk and fractures. The width-to-length ratio of a fracture is of the order of a small parameter $\varepsilon$ and the ratio $K_\mathrm{f}^\star / K_\mathrm{b}^\star$ of the characteristic hydraulic conductivities in the fracture and bulk domains is assumed to scale with $\varepsilon^α$ for a parameter $α\in \mathbb{R}$. The fracture geometry is parameterized by aperture functions on a submanifold of codimension one. Given a fracture, we derive the limit models as $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0$. Depending on the value of $α$, we obtain five different limit models as $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0$, for which we present rigorous convergence results.
