Conventional flow models based on Darcy's flow physics fail to model shale gas production
data accurately. The failure to match field data and laboratory-scale evidence of non-Darcy …

The modeling of shale gas transport through nanopores is the basis for shale gas production
simulation. The real shale gas always consists of a series of gases, including ethane …

A precise heat transfer simulation of a three-dimensional impinging jet porous heat sink is
presented and is analyzed from thermodynamics vantage point under local thermal non …

Investigating the porosity–permeability evolution in carbonate rocks during long-term
infiltration is a challenging hydrodynamic problem in rock engineering (hydroelectric …

The apparent gas permeability (AGP) of a porous medium is an important parameter to
predict production of unconventional gas. The Klinkenberg correlation, which states that the …

This research investigates the effects of mixer divergence or convergence on mixing using
the DSMC method. A straight mixer with an outlet-to-inlet height ratio of 1.0 is considered as …

Abstract Background and Objective Recommendations for the use of face masks to prevent
and protect against the aerosols (≤ 5µm) and respiratory droplet particles (≥ 5µm), which …

Three flow types and previous modeling methods for the fibrous porous media (FPM) are
summarized. A novel algorithm for modeling FPM structures was proposed to overcome …

This paper introduces a novel method to model gradient aerogels' structure and thermal
properties (as for thermal insulators) with gradient porosity (or density) and thermal …

The Sierpinski carpet is mainly used to model the structure and properties of homogeneous
media because of the unique characteristics of fractal materials (self-similarity) and the …
