Abstrakt: Homogenization techniques are used to upscale from pore to laboratory or field scale viscous and second grade non‐Newtonian flow in a porous medium. Nonlinear forms of Darcy's law are obtained and analysed under a series of symmetry properties. The general case of displacement of one of these fluids by another with different properties is considered and a linear stability analysis is performed.
