Effects of Pore-Scale Disorder on Fluid Displacement in Partially-Wettable Porous Media

We present a systematic, quantitative assessment of the impact of pore size disorder and its interplay with flow rates and wettability on immiscible displacement of a viscous fluid. Pore-scale simulations and micromodel experiments show that reducing disorder increases the displacement efficiency an...
