摘要:

The invasion percolation algorithm is used to simulate two-fluid immiscible displacement of a wetting fluid by a non-wetting fluid in various porous media represented by two-dimensional and three-dimensional networks of interconnected capillaries. Trapping of the displaced fluid occurs, thereby creating isolated islands. The effects of the thickness of the porous medium on the island size distribution are studied for capillary displacements for the case in which buoyancy effects are negligible. It was found in a previous study that the number of islands of size s scales approximately as s~" in two-dimensional porous media, where a is a function of the fluid viscosity ratio. The present work reveals that there is a cross-over behavior between the two-dimensional and the three-dimensional problems.
