    The macroscopic constitutive relations for title flows are derived by using a percolation model and verified by comparison with the results of direct computer simulation of the flow in capillary networks. Two types of flow, physically different but similar with respect to the resultant mechanical description, are considered, namely flow of a gas-foam mixture and simultaneous flow of two fluids, one of which is a viscoplastic (Bingham) fluid.
