The work is devoted to one of the approaches in the numerical simulation of filtration processes of a two-phase incompressible fluid. Bukley -Leverett problem is considered with solutions of a shock wave type. Within the mixed finite element method upwind algorithm for solution to equation for saturation is proposed, which gives solutions without numerical oscillations at the discontinuity. Special attention is paid to a new approach to solving the degenerate Neumann problem in a mixed formulation for the pressure and total flow velocity. The work is accompanied by an illustration of the results of numerical experiments for 3D problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
