Abstract
The effect of geometrical confinement on Rayleigh-Taylor mixing in porous media is investigated by means of numerical simulations. We find a dimensional transition from three-dimensional to two-dimensional phenomenology when the density plumes become larger than the confining scale. In the two-dimensional regime we observe a faster mixing process and a larger value of the density Nusselt number.
