Flow in fractured porous media occurs the earth’s subsurface, biological tissues, and man-made materials. Fractures have a dominating influence on flow processes, last decade has seen an extensive development of models numerical methods that explicitly account for their presence. To support these developments, four benchmark cases single-phase three-dimensional are presented. The specifically d...

Abstract Darcy’s law for porous media transport is given a new local thermodynamic basis in terms of the grand potential confined fluids. The effective pressure gradient determined using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics, and hydraulic conductivity permeability are investigated. coefficients single-phase flow face-centered cubic lattices solid spheres. porosity changed from that closest packin...

One of the main concerns of researchers is the separation of suspended particles in a fluid. Accordingly, the current study numerically investigated the effects of a conical section on the flow pattern of a Stairmand cyclone by simulating single-cone and dual-cone cyclones. A turbulence model was used to analyze incompressible gas-particle flow in the cyclone models, and the Eulerian–Lagrangian...

Gas-lift pumps are devices for lifting liquid phase incorporating the gas phase to be injected in the bottom of liquid column. They are widely used in various industrial applications such as oil extracting in petroleum industries. Gas-liquid flow being the main part of the flow through these systems, flowing in vertical pipes of gas-lift pumps has different regimes namely bubbly, slug, chur...
