Abstract
The approximate solution of imbibition phenomenon governed by non-linear partial differential equation is discussed in the present paper. Primary oil recovery process due to natural soil pressure, but in the secondary oil recovery process water flooding plays an important role. When water is injected in the injection well for recovering the reaming oil after primary oil recovery process, it comes to contact with the native oil and at that time the imbibition phenomenon occurs due to different viscosity. For the mathematical modelling, we consider the homogeneous porous medium and optimal homotopy analysis method has been used to solve the partial differential equation governed by it. The graphical representation of the solution is given by MATHEMATICA and physically interpreted.
