Abstract

This paper presents a new numerical formulation of Counter – Current Imbibition Phenomenon for the simulation of immiscible and incompressible phase flow in heterogeneous porous media for Corey’s model and Scheidegger-Johnson model. Adomian Decomposition Method is used numerically to investigate the saturation rate as well as the recovery rate for both models with its convergence analysis. A detailed discussion of the saturation rate as well as recovery rate with dimensionless time is studied for both models with its comparison study and its physical interpretation.
