Abstract
The basic hyperbolic–elliptic black-oil model describes oil–water displacement in a porous medium. Given its mathematical complexity, there is a need for particular simple solutions for validation of numerical methods. We present a class of stationary solutions, which are easy to compute, and in many cases are given by explicit formulae. These solutions are constructed by a nonlinear coupling of two linear equations, an elliptic pressure equation and a hyperbolic saturation equation.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Applied Mathematics Letters is to provide a means of rapid publication for important but brief applied mathematical papers. The brief descriptions of any work involving a novel application or utilization of mathematics, or a development in the methodology of applied mathematics is a potential contribution for this journal. This journal''s focus is on applied mathematics topics based on differential equations and linear algebra. Priority will be given to submissions that are likely to appeal to a wide audience.
