Abstract

Viscoelastic (Maxwellian) slow, immiscible liquid-liquid displacement in a permeable medium is considered. The necessary and sufficient criteria for stability are that the displacing fluid is denser and less mobile than the displaced fluid. The instability criteria and critical wave length are found to be the same as those for ordinary viscous liquid-liquid displacements in permeable media.
