To improve the understanding of trapping and mobilization mechanism during multiphase
flow in porous media, long-term waterflooding experiments have been performed to capture …

In order to elucidate the oil displacement mechanism of micro-emulsions formed by different
betaines at pore throats, this study selected three betaine surfactants with different …

This work studies the mechanisms of shape and surface property effects on multiphase
displacement enhancement by nanoparticle suspensions in porous media. Three …

Wettability alteration commonly occurs in subsurface two-phase displacements, such as
enhanced hydrocarbon recovery, hydrogen storage, and carbon dioxide sequestration. A …

The technology of sequestering CO 2 in deep shale has shown great potential due to the
low permeability of shale and the high adsorption of CO 2 by organic-rich characteristics …

Haines jumps and meniscus reconfiguration are commonly observed in immiscible two-
phase flows through porous media. The experiment found that the fluid-fluid interface moves …

This study proposes a numerical model for particulate three-phase flow in microchannels
based on multiphase lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The model combines the color …

In porous media, dispersed fluid ganglia (bubbles, droplets) largely shape flow, transport,
and chemical reactions. Static trapping and steady-state mobilization of ganglia have been …

Viscous coupling effect on pore-scale flow capacity and its impact on macroscopic flow
properties in porous media remain subjects of ongoing debate. This study employs the …

Electrokinetic transport occurs at the two-liquid interfaces due to its inevitably spontaneous
charging induced by imbalanced partition and/or specific adsorption. The diffuse feature of …
