The formation of viscous limited saturation zones behind rapid drainage fronts in porous media

Drainage characteristics of porous media are shaped by an interplay between gravitational, capillary and viscous forces that result in complex phase invasion patterns and dynamics. We propose a mechanistic model for viscous separation of temporary phase detention behind rapidly moving drainage front...
