Abstract

A model based on invasion percolation was used to simulate the migration on a non-wetting fluid through a porous medium filled with an immiscible wetting fluid under the influence of a gradient such as that provided by gravity. The migrating fluid clusters undergo both fragmentation and coalescence. The fragment size distribution obtained from two-dimensional simulations in which the gradient g is slowly increased from 0 can be represented by the scaling form Ns(g)∼s-2ƒ(s⧸|g|-z where z=1+(D−1)ν⧸(ν+1). Here D is the fractal dimensionality of invasion percolation, with trapping, and ν is the ordinary percolation correlation length exponent.
