Abstract Two phase,incompressible miscible flow in porous media is governed by a system of nonlinear partial differential equations.The pressure equation,which is elliptic in appearance,is discretized by a standard five points difference method.The concentration equation is treated by an implicit finite difference method that applies a form of the method of characteristics to the transport terms.A class of biquadratic interpolation is introduced for the method of characteristics.Convergence rate is proved to be O(Δt+h 2).
