Items related to Mechanics of Immiscible Fluids in Porous Media
Pollution of groundwater aquifers by petroleum fluids and other non-aqueous liquids, such as chlorinated hydrocarbons, has become a major concern of investigators both nationally and internationally. Material presented in this text provides the necessary foundation for students, with a background in elementary fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, interested in the analysis of such problems. The primary objective of this text is the presentation of basic principles of the mechanics of two-phase fluid systems in soils and porous rocks. Changes appearing in this third edition are made with the objective of providing a clearer presentation of basic principles. Chapters 4, 5, and 6, were revised to include new material and give a more rigorous treatment of the theory for flow of two immiscible fluids.

From the Publisher:
This book is useful to both students and researchers involved in the transport in porous media including groundwater hydrology, soil physics and flow theory.
About the Author:
Dr. Arthur T. Corey, Professor Emeritus from Colorado State University, has continued his research on flow of immiscible fluids. His expertise and experience in his studies, with the help of his students have greatly extended the theories used by hydrologists concerned with processes taking place within the vadose zone.
