Abstract

We investigate the propagation of sound waves by means of a newly constructed model in a sandstone filled with two immiscible fluids. The speeds and attenuations of the four emerging waves (one transversal, three longitudinal) are illustrated in dependence on frequency and initial saturation. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
