Abstract: In this paper, we propose a local-global multiscale mortar mixed finite element method (MMMFEM) for multiphase transport in heterogeneous media. We consider the two-phase flow system, the pressure equation is solved via the multiscale mortar mixed finite element method, a mass conservation velocity field can be obtained, then we use explicit finite volume method to solve the saturation equation. We use polynomials and multiscale basis to form the coarse mortar space. The multiscale basis is the restriction of global pressure field obtained at previous time step on the coarse interface. We solve the pressure equation on the fine grid to initialize the simulation. Numerical experiments on some benchmark 2D and 3D heterogeneous models are provided to validate the performance of our method.
