摘要: [1] This paper presents a class of analytical solutions for transient flow into unsaturated rock matrix. These are derived using specially correlated, physically meaningful relative permeability and capillary functions. The processes in matrix blocks generally described by the Richards' equation. describe full behavior have proven (through various examples) to be useful verifying numerical model results.
