MODELING TWO-PHASE IMMISCIBLE FLUID FLOW IN POROUS HYDROPHILIC MEDIUM
The paper reports the laboratory research into water displacement of kerosene from porous hydrophilic specimen. The displacement front was positioned by cutting the specimen at the fixed time and the result matched with the solution obtained in the framework of the Buckley - Leverett model. The input parameters for the model were assumed to be porosity, permeability, relative phase permeabilities of the hydrophilic material the specimen was made of.
