Matrix Imbibition

Matrix Imbibition is a capillary-driven fluid transfer mechanism in fractured reservoir simulation whereby the porous matrix spontaneously absorbs wetting phase fluid from fractures due to capillary pressure differentials, distinguishing it from gravitational or viscous displacement processes.
