Viscous fingering (VF) instability
Miscible viscous fingering of pushed versus pulled interface (Satyajit Pramanik)
• Viscous fingering instability is specialclass of hydrodynamic instability whichleads to the dispossession of the initialinterfacial shape between the fluids withdifferent viscosity.
• Less mobile fluid lag behind the highmobile fluid which penetrates throughthe former in a porous media.

Viscous fingering (VF) instability
Miscible viscous fingering of pushed versus pulled interface (Satyajit Pramanik)
Viscous fingering can be observed in
immiscible fluids where surface tension acts as the most importantfactor miscible fluids where the diffusion plays the key role
AIM
Here we focus on the rectilinear displacement of miscible solutions.
Two most important applications of viscous fingering instability are1. Chromatographic separation and2. Pollutants dispersion of in aquifers.
In both the cases one fluid is localized within a finite region and isdisplaced by another carrying fluid. Sometimes, the finite fluid can be confined within a circular region andhence single interface model is not appropriate for these cases.
