The study presents a method to describe more accurately the displacement of 2 or more immiscible fluids by one or more immiscible fluids. The method was applied in a Cofcaw process to describe the saturation distribution in a multiphase immiscible displacement which occurs ahead of the combustion front in a linear reservoir. Graphical results are shown which facilitate the evaluation of displacement efficiency. The method can be used to determine the optimum water-air ratio to be injected for improving displacement in this process. One example calculation is provided to demonstrate the use of this method.
