• A Review of Micromodels and Their Use in Two‐Phase Flow Studies (2012, methodology): “…imbibition, as well as the mechanisms that dominate them, like viscous or capillary i ngering, snap-of , etc., have been studied using micromodels (Zhang et al., 2011a, 2011b; Ferer et al., 2004; Grate et al., 2010; Gutiérrez et al., 2008; Hug et al., 2003; Huh et al., 2007; Jeong and…”
• Pore-Scale Simulations of Gas Displacing Liquid in a Homogeneous Pore Network Using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (2013, methodology): “The underlying pore-scale mechanisms of drainage and imbibition have been studied experimentally using micromodels by several investigators (Lenormand et al. 1983, 1988; Lenormand 1990; Ferer et al. 2004; Chang et al. 2009; Cottin et al. 2010; Zhang et al. 2011).”
• Visualizing and quantifying the crossover from capillary fingering to viscous fingering in a rough fracture (2017, methodology): “…[Babadagli et al., 2015b, 2015a] and wettability [Chaudhary et al., 2013; Holtzman and Segre, 2015; Trojer et al., 2015; Jung et al., 2016; Zhao et al., 2016], the phase diagram just provides a qualitative representation of the displacement patterns [Zhang et al., 2011; Yamabe et al., 2014].”
• Wettability and Flow Rate Impacts on Immiscible Displacement: A Theoretical Model (2018, background): “…from fingering to stable flow regimes with consideration of wettability, and therefore, extends the classic phase diagram (Lenormand, 1990; Lenormand et al., 1988; Zhang et al., 2011) to consider the wettability within the range from strong imbibition (𝜃 = 5∘) to strong drainage (𝜃 = 175∘).”
