In-situ characterization of capillary pressure during three-phase flow in porous media [PDF]
We characterize the pore-scale fluid distributions, phase connectivity, and local capillary pressures during three-phase flow in a water-wet Berea sandstone sample.

Dynamic pore-scale modeling of residual fluid configurations in disordered porous media [PDF]
Fluid trapping in porous media is important in many subsurface flow processes such as enhanced oil recovery and geological sequestration of carbon dioxide.

Subsurface multiphase flow in porous media simulation is extensively used in many disciplines. Large meshes with non-orthogonalities (e.g., corner point geometries) and full tensor highly anisotropy ratios are usually required for subsurface flow ...

AbstractConnectivity and connectedness are nonadditive geometric functionals on the set of pore scale structures. They determine transport of mass, volume or momentum in porous media, because without connectivity there cannot be transport. Percolativity of porous media is introduced here as a geometric descriptor of connectivity, that can be computed ...

Residual oil zones (ROZs) have high residual oil saturation, which can be produced using CO2 miscible flooding. At the same time, these zones are good candidates for CO2 sequestration.

Drying of porous media is part of our daily experience, yet this common process is central to many environmental and engineering applications ranging from soil evaporation affecting hydrological water balance and climatic processes, to the drying of food and building materials, and driving plant life through transpiration.

Rock yielding may well take place during hydraulic fracturing in deep reservoirs. The prevailing models based on the linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) are incapable of describing the evolution process of hydraulic fractures accurately.

Numerical Study of the Effect of a Power-law Fluid Flow Structures on Levels of Mixing in a Taylor Couette Configuration [PDF]
This work is a numerical study on the effects of the flow structures of the power-law fluid between two concentric cylinders with an upward laminar axial flow on levels of mixing and mean residence time through the Taylor Couette system.

TRANSFERS IN POROUS MEDIA [PDF]
Modelling heat transfer in porous media requires to take into account multiple-scale aspects inherent to porous media structures. Several methodologies have been developed to upscale the equations at a lower-scale and to obtain upper-scale models as it is outlined in a brief review based on a simple heat conduction example proposed in the first part of
