Abstract: | A study is made of the problem of determining the parameters of flow described by the Buckley-Leverett system of equations by using functions that admit direct measurement. The well-known solution to the analogous problem for two-phase flow 1–3] is generalized. In contrast to 4], the general case is considered, when the fractions of the phases in the flow and the phase permeabilities depend on two variables.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 5, pp. 187–189, September–October, 1984.The author wishes to thank B.
