  2. Relative permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permeability

    If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. absolute water permeability (i.e. =), we get an endpoint parameter for both oil and water relative permeability. If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. oil permeability with irreducible water saturation present, endpoint is one, and we are left with only the endpoint parameter. In order to satisfy both ...

  3. Buckley–Leverett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckley–Leverett_equation

    In fluid dynamics, the Buckley–Leverett equation is a conservation equation used to model two-phase flow in porous media. [1] The Buckley–Leverett equation or the Buckley–Leverett displacement describes an immiscible displacement process, such as the displacement of oil by water, in a one-dimensional or quasi-one-dimensional reservoir.

  4. List of dimensionless quantities - Wikipedia

    magnetostatics (ratio of the permeability of a specific medium to free space) Relative permittivity = electrostatics (ratio of capacitance of test capacitor with dielectric material versus vacuum) Specific gravity: SG (same as Relative density) Stefan number: Ste

  5. Permeability (porous media) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(porous_media)

    This may also be called the intrinsic permeability or specific permeability. These terms refer to the quality that the permeability value in question is an intensive property of the medium, not a spatial average of a heterogeneous block of material equation 2.28 [ clarification needed ] [ further explanation needed ] ; and that it is a function ...

  6. Phase (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(waves)

    The difference () = () between the phases of two periodic signals and is called the phase difference or phase shift of relative to . [1] At values of t {\displaystyle t} when the difference is zero, the two signals are said to be in phase; otherwise, they are out of phase with each other.

  7. Electromagnetic wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_wave_equation

    The electromagnetic wave equation is a second-order partial differential equation that describes the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a medium or in a vacuum. It is a three-dimensional form of the wave equation. The homogeneous form of the equation, written in terms of either the electric field E or the magnetic field B, takes the form:

  8. Fluid flow through porous media - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_flow_through_porous...

    The movement of a fluid through porous media is described by the combination of Darcy's law with the principle of conservation of mass in order to express the capillary force or fluid velocity as a function of various other parameters including the effective pore radius, liquid viscosity or permeability. [3]

  9. Phase velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_velocity

    Propagation of a wave packet demonstrating a phase velocity greater than the group velocity. This shows a wave with the group velocity and phase velocity going in different directions. The group velocity is positive, while the phase velocity is negative. [1] The phase velocity of a wave is the rate at which the wave propagates in any medium.
