1D Displacement in a Homogeneous Permeable Reservoir

1. Whether the range of injection flow rates that remains influenced by gravity forces and which affects the rate of movement of saturation profiles as well as pressure distribution profiles would remain to be nearly the same or would remain to be significantly different between laboratory-scale observation and field-scale reality?

2. What is the physical significance on the elimination of triple-valued Buckley-Leverett saturation profiles upon considering capillarity?
