Abstract
An algorithm for modeling secondary invasion processes in porous media is presented. Mobilization of trapped defender fluid is accomplished through interfacial interaction rules. Cohesive forces are also includ ed within the defender phase. A series of simulation runs are performe d using two-dimensional lattices and examined to determine optimal con ditions for secondary invasions that sweep the trapped defender phase from the porous medium.
