Forward prediction of early‐time spontaneous imbibition of water in unsaturated rock fractures
Abstract Spontaneous imbibition is a capillary‐driven phenomenon in which a wetting fluid displaces a nonwetting fluid from voids without any increase in external pressure. This study compared forward predictions of early‐time displacement of air by water within Mode I fractures in 14 low‐porosity r...
