Multiphase fluid flow in porous and fractured resevoirs / Многофазный поток жидкости в пористых и трещиноватых коллекторах

Processes of flow and displacement of multiphase fluids though porous media occur in many subsurface systems and have found wide application in many scientific, technical, and engineering fields, such as petroleum engineering, groundwater and vadose zone hydrology, soil sciences, geothermal energy development, subsurface contamination investigation and remediation, and subsurface resource storage or waste disposal. Because of the needs in these areas, tremendous research and development efforts have been devoted to investigating the physics of multiphase flow and transport in porous and fractured media in the past century. As a result of multidisciplinary research efforts, significant progress and scientific advances have been made in the understanding of the dynamics of porous-medium flow of multiple immiscible fluids.<...>
