Burst Dynamics, Upscaling and Dissipation of Slow Drainage in Porous Media

We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of drainage in porous media. The study is limited to stabilized fluid fronts at moderate injection rates, but it takes into account capillary, viscous, and gravitational forces. In the theoretical framework presented, the work applied on the sy...
