The flow properties of complex fluids through porous media give rise to multiphase flow displacement mechanisms that operate at different scales, from pore-level to Darcy scale. Experiments have shown that injection of oil-in-water emulsions can be used as an effective enhanced-oil recovery (EOR) method, leading to substantial increase in the volume of oil recovered. Pore-scale flow visualization...
