Description for Capillary Flows in Heterogeneous and Random Porous Media
Hardback. Statistical Approaches to Unsaturated Capillary Flows in Pores, Joints, Soils and Other Heterogeneous Media focuses on physical models and on statistical approaches to air/water flow in systems of pores and capillary tubes, in smooth or rough planar joints, and in heterogeneous porous media based on properly upscaled equations. Num Pages: 208 pages. BIC Classification: TGMF3. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 250 x 150. Weight in Grams: 674.
Capillary phenomena occur in both natural and human-made systems, from equilibria in the presence of solids (grains, walls, metal wires) to multiphase flows in heterogeneous and fractured porous media. This book, composed of two volumes, develops fluid mechanics approaches for two immiscible fluids (water/air or water/oil) in the presence of solids (tubes, joints, grains, porous media). Their hydrodynamics are typically dominated by capillarity and viscous dissipation.
This first volume presents the basic concepts and investigates two-phase equilibria, before analyzing two-phase hydrodynamics in discrete and/or statistical systems (tubular pores, planar joints). It then studies flows in heterogeneous and ... Read more
