摘要
We use pore-scale network modeling to simulate imbibition in fractures and the matrix/fracture interaction accounting for viscous forces and flow in wetting layers. We represent the fracture as a 2D lattice of conceptual pores and throats connected to a 3D network that models the rock matrix. We find that the matrix adjacent to the fracture plays an important role in controlling matrix/fracture transfer.
