Physical and biogeochemical heterogeneity dramatically impacts fluid flow and reactive
solute transport behaviors in geological formations across scales. From micro pores to …

The purpose of this article is to review the various methods used to calculate the equivalent
permeability of a heterogeneous porous medium. It shows how equivalence is defined by …

This third edition offers a comprehensive overview of the latest theories on flow, transport,
and heat-exchange processes in porous media. It also details sophisticated porous media …

Geological media exhibit heterogeneities in their hydraulic and chemical properties, which
can lead to enhanced spreading and mixing of the transported species and induce an …

Dissolution of a porous medium creates, under certain conditions, some highly conductive
channels called wormholes. The mechanism of propagation is an unstable phenomenon …

A multiphase Darcy-Brinkman approach is proposed to simulate two-phase flow in hybrid
systems containing both solid-free regions and porous matrices. This micro-continuum …

This paper presents two-and three-dimensional numerical solutions for the local closure
problems associated with the two-equation model for heat transfer in porous media. Results …

We propose a new experimental set up to characterize mixing and reactive transport in
porous media with a high spatial resolution at the pore scale. The analogous porous …

Publisher Summary This chapter outlines several theoretical models currently prevailing for
multiphase flow and heat transfer in porous media. In particular, a multiphase mixture model …

The drying of liquid-saturated porous media is typically approached using macroscopic
continuum models involving phenomenological coefficients. Insight on these coefficients can …
