Abstract

In this work, we present a new implicit scheme for two-phase flow in porous media. The proposed scheme is based on the iterative IMPES (IMplicit Pressure Explicit Saturation) method and, therefore, preserves its efficiency in treatment of nonlinearities, while relaxing the time step condition common for explicit methods. At the same time, it does not involve costly computation of Jacobian matrix required for generic Newtons type methods.
