Modelling of imbibition phenomena in two-phase fluid flow through fractured porous media

Abstract

In this paper, the counter-current imbibition phenomenon in two phase fluid through fracture porous media is discussed and Adomian decomposition method is applied to find the saturation of wetting phase and the recovery rate of the reservoir. A simulation result is developed for the saturation of wetting phase in fracture matrix and in porous matrix for some interesting choices of parametric value to study the recovery rate of the oil reservoir with dimensionless time. This problem has a great importance in the oil recovery process.
