Capillary-pressure Effects

Capillary-Pressure Effects is a physical phenomenon in porous media that describes the pressure difference across the interface between two immiscible fluids, arising from interfacial tension and pore geometry, which governs fluid distribution, saturation, and mobility during multiphase flow in unconventional reservoirs, foam flooding, and relative permeability behavior.
