The flow characteristics in the inertial Reynolds number regime are investigated in a mono-dispersed random pack porous media. Time-resolved particle image velocimetry (PIV) is used to visualize the velocity field in a low aspect ratio... more
We consider the role of topology on drainage relative permeabilities derived from network models. We describe the topological properties of rock networks derived from a suite of tomographic images of Fontainbleau sandstone (Lindquist et... more
In a previous study Arns et al. (2004, Transport Porous Media 55, 21–46) we considered the role of topology on drainage relative permeability curves computed using network models derived from a suite of tomographic images of Fontainebleau... more
This work evaluates and improves upon existing effective medium methods for permeability upscaling in fractured media. Specifically, we are concerned with the asymmetric self-consistent, symmetric self-consistent, and differential... more
In this paper, we address the issue of threshold yield pressure of yield-stress materials in rigid networks of interconnected conduits and porous structures subject to a pressure gradient. We compare the results as obtained dynamically... more
