Pore scale simulation of solute transport in fractured porous media
[1] We investigate the effects of the porosity (and thus permeability) of porous matrix and the fracture aperture on transport in fractured porous media. We do so with detailed lattice Boltzmann simulations on constructed porous media with a single fracture. Both plume spatial moments (the average plume velocity and the dispersion coefficients) and mass transfer coefficients between the facture...
متن کاملPore network modeling of the electrical signature of solute transport in dual-domain media
Dual-domain models are used to explain anomalous solute transport behavior observed in diverse hydrologic settings and applications, from groundwater remediation to hyporheic exchange. To constrain such models, new methods are needed with sensitivity to both immobile and mobile domains. Recent experiments indicate that dual-domain transport of ionic tracers has an observable geoelectrical signa...
متن کاملSolute Transport in Heterogeneous Porous Media
Solute mass transport in porous media is strongly correlated with pore fluid flow. The analysis of solute transport is an effective means for studying medium heterogeneities. In this study, we discuss the effects of heterogeneity on the tracer transport. Assuming steady fluid flow, we have simulated tracer transport in various permeability heterogeneities. The results show that the tracer distr...
متن کاملPore network model of electrokinetic transport through charged porous media.
We introduce a method for the numerical determination of the steady-state response of complex charged porous media to pressure, salt concentration, and electric potential gradients. The macroscopic fluxes of solvent, salt, and charge are computed within the framework of the Pore Network Model (PNM), which describes the pore structure of the samples as networks of pores connected to each other b...
متن کاملA hybrid multi-time-step framework for pore-scale and continuum-scale modeling of solute transport in porous media
Understanding transport processes in porous media is vital to many scientific and industrial applications. For instance, predicting the fate of chemical contaminants in subsurface, and simulating various processes in geological carbon-dioxide sequestration are two of the most prominent examples. Considering the dimensions of a typical spatial domain in such problems, usually in the order of kil...
