Abstract

A three-dimensional pore-scale lattice model for two-phase displacement has been developed. A surface detection algorithm tracks the global interface between wetting and nonwetting fluids. Resident fluid remaining in pores behind an advancing interface are identified as trapped. The model can be used to simulate the capillary pressure - saturation relation on the lab scale. -Authors
