Abstract: Invasion percolation is studied on correlated square networks described through a site-bond model which has proven to be useful for the characterization of real heterogeneous media. It is shown how the correlation degree affects the mean front velocity, the number of islands of trapped defender fluid (which are completely surrounded by invaded elements), their size distribution and total number of steps to reach the final state. The correlation degree seems to affect the fractal dimension of the percolating cluster. A characteristic correlation length is found to exist which maximizes the mean invasion velocity.
