The Phase Transport and
Phase Transport in Porous Media interfaces are intended for studying the transport of multiple immiscible fluid, gas, or (dispersed) solid phases either in free flow or in flow through a porous medium. The interfaces solve for the averaged volume fractions (also called saturations in a porous medium) of the phases, and does not track the interfaces between the different phases. Both interfaces are based on the macroscopic mass conservation equations of each phase. In a porous medium the effects of the microscopic (or pore scale) interfaces between the phases can be taken into account via the capillary pressure functions.
