Fingering instability in immiscible displacement

Volume: 77, Issue: 2
Published: Feb 1, 2008
Abstract
Departing from the classical Buckley-Leverett theory for two-phase immiscible flows in porous media, a reduced evolution equation for the water-oil displacement front is formulated and studied numerically. The reduced model successfully reproduces the basic features of the finger-forming dynamics observed in recent direct numerical...
