Abstract: | The stability of the steady-state flow regimes of a liquid with dissolved gas in a porous medium is investigated in the region
of the saturation pressure. It is shown that under certain conditions periodic and stochastic self-oscillations caused by
the accumulation in the porous medium and subsequent entrainment of the very small gas bubbles formed as a result of pressure
reduction may arise. Experimental data that confirmed the theoretical results are presented.
