Abstract

Present study explores the Fingering (Instability) phenomenon's mathematical model that ensues during the process of secondary oil recovery where two not miscible fluids (water and oil) flow within a heterogeneous porous medium as water is injected vertically downwards. Variational iteration method with proper initial and boundary conditions is being used to determine approximate analytic solution for governing nonlinear second order partial differential equation. Whereas MATLAB is applied to acquire the solution's numerical findings and graphical representations.
