A new shape factor for counter-current imbibition in anisotropic matrix blocks of fractured reservoirs

Abstract The shape factor is essential for characterizing matrix-fracture fluid transfer and scaling of spontaneous imbibition in fractured reservoirs. Most existing models assume isotropic permeability, while limited studies on anisotropic cases adopt constant shape factors that inadequately captur...
