We review the use and calibration of empirical models for viscous fingering. The choice of parameters for the three principal approaches (Koval, Todd and Longstaff, and Fayers methods) is outlined. The methods all give similar levels of accuracy when compared with linear experiments, but differ in performance in two-dimensional applications. This arises from differences in the formulation of the total mobility terms. The superiority of the Todd and Longstaff and Fayers methods is demonstrated for two-dimensional and gravity influenced flows by comparison with experiments and high resolution simulation. The use of high resolution simulation to calibrate empirical models in a systematic manner is described. Results from detailed simulation de...
