Axisymmetric Drainage in Hydrophobic Porous Media Micromodels Drainage en géométrie axisymétrique dans des milieux poreux hydrophobes à deux dimensions

We present studies of axisymmetric drainage in two-dimensional micromodels of porous media using up to date microfabrication and image analysis methods. Drainage of model oil by aqueous solutions is studied at low capillary numbers (Ca) typically encountered during oil recovery operations. We use...
