Saturation dependence of dispersion in porous media.
In this study, we develop a saturation-dependent treatment of dispersion in porous media using concepts from critical path analysis, cluster statistics of percolation, and fractal scaling of percolation clusters. We calculate spatial solute distributions as a function of time and calculate arrival time distributions as a function of system size. Our previous results correctly predict the range ...
متن کاملDispersion of solutes in porous media
A recently introduced theory of solute transport in porous media is tested by comparison with experiment. The solute transport is predicted using an adaptation of the cluster statistics of percolation theory to critical path analysis together with knowledge of how the structure of such percolation clusters affects the time of transport across them. Only the effects of a single scale of medium h...
متن کاملDispersion of charged tracers in charged porous media
We report a lattice-Boltzmann scheme to compute the dispersion of charged tracers in charged porous media under the combined effect of advection, diffusion and electro-migration. To this end, we extend the moment propagation approach, introduced to study the dispersion of neutral tracers (Lowe C. and Frenkel D., Phys. Rev. Lett., 77 (1996) 4552), to include the effect of electrostatic forces. T...
متن کاملPore-scale modeling of transverse dispersion in porous media
[1] A physically based description is provided for the transverse dispersion coefficient in porous media as a function of Péclet number, Pe. We represent the porous medium as lattices of bonds with square cross section whose radius distribution is the same as computed for Berea sandstone and describe flow (Stokes equation) and diffusion (random walk method) at the pore scale ( mm) to compute th...
متن کاملSolute transport in porous media: Dispersion tensor of periodic networks
Transport of contaminants in soils, nutrients in bones, and movement of minerals in soils are examples of solute transport in porous media. Theoretical methods used to study solute transport in porous media include numerical experiments on networks, on media with fractal geometry and percolation methods; method of moments and homogenization techniques on periodic media, and method of moments on...
