Non-Darcian Displacement of Oil by a Micellar Solution in Fractal Porous Media

A Buckley–Leverett analysis with capillary pressure to model the oil displacement in fractal porous media is herein presented. The effective permeability for a non-Newtonian micellar fluid is calculated by a constitutive equation used to describe the rheological properties of a displacement fluid. T...
