ons wer% of the The relative permeability of immiscible multi-phase flow in Layered 2D porous

permeable porous media, a low permeable porous media, and layered dual permeable porous

media. For tconditihe later case, parallel and serie high permeable layer, and 3- 75% of high

permeable layer. For each condition, The viscous coupling effects due to viscosity ratio, the

capillary number and the media is investigated employing e considered. For each condition, three

proportion of layers were studied; 1- 25% of the high permeable layer, 2- 50 the diffuse interface

Lattice Boltzmann model. The interfacial tension is set to small value to mimic the near miscible

condition of the fluids. The model is validated with static and dynamic analytical solutions.

Three classes of porous media are examined: A high effect of the fluid patterns on the relative

permeability curves were investigated. The simulation results showed very small errors compare

with the analytical permeability solutions of layered porous media. The findings showed that

despite the dual permeable serie system, the relative permeability curve of dual permeable

parallel geometry is closely matched with the analytical solution.
