From the Navier-Stokes-Korteweg (NSK) equations, the exact relations between the fundamental surface physical quantities for two-phase viscous flow with diffuse interface are derived, including density gradient, shear stress, vorticity,…
We use confocal microscopy to directly visualize the spatial fluctuations in fluid flow through a three-dimensional porous medium. We find that the velocity magnitudes and the velocity components both along and transverse to the imposed…
In this work we present a new conceptual model to describe fluid flow in a porous media system in presence of a large fault. Geological faults are often modeled simply as interfaces in the rock matrix, but they are complex structure where…
Immiscible fluid displacement in porous media is fundamental for many environmental processes, including infiltration of water in soils, groundwater remediation, enhanced recovery of hydrocarbons and carbon geosequestration. Microstructural…
When immiscible wetting and non-wetting fluids move in parallel in a porous medium, an instability may occur at sufficiently high capillary numbers so that interfaces between the fluids initially held in place by the porous medium are…
This brief note addresses the free boundary problem arising from the steady two-dimensional seepage flow through a rectangular dam. The flow problem consists in finding the free boundary location, and the velocity and pressure fields. The…
The estimation of the permeability of porous media to fluids is of fundamental importance in fields as diverse as oil and gas industry, agriculture, hydrology and medicine. Despite more than 150 years since the publication of Darcy's linear…
Theoretical and experimental investigations of water vapor interaction with porous materials are carried out both at the macro level and at the micro level. At the macro level, the influence of the arrangement structure of individual pores…
The effect of the variations of the permeability tensor on the close-to-the-wall behaviour of a turbulent channel flow bounded by porous walls is explored using a set of direct numerical simulations. It is found that the total drag can be…
In the present study, we conduct direct numerical simulations to investigate the near-wall dynamics of compressible turbulent boundary layers at the free-stream Mach number of 6 laden with heavy particles. By inspecting the instantaneous…
The complex interactions between turbulence and the free surface, including air entrainment processes, in boundary layer shear flows created by vertical surface-piercing plates are considered. A laboratory-scale device was built that…
This study investigates laminar boundary layer separation over a fully porous Gaussian bump using pore-resolved direct numerical simulations. The bump is formed by randomly packed spheres. Compared to a solid bump, the porous surface…
Transport in multiphase flow through porous media plays a central role in many biological, geological, and engineered systems. Here, we use numerical simulations of transport in immiscible two-phase flow to investigate dispersion in…
We are investigating the effective heat transfer in complex systems involving porous media and surrounding fluid layers in the context of mathematical homogenization. We differentiate between two fundamentally different cases: Case (a),…
We propose a theory for erosional channelization induced by fluid flow in a saturated granular porous medium. When the local fluid flow-induced stress is larger than a critical threshold, grains are dislodged and carried away so that the…
We study average flow properties in porous media using a two-dimensional network simulator. It models the dynamics of two-phase immiscible bulk flow where film flow can be neglected. The boundary conditions are biperiodic which provide a…
Channel formation and branching is widely seen in physical systems where movement of fluid through a porous structure causes the spatiotemporal evolution of the medium in response to the flow, in turn causing flow pathways to evolve. We…
Inference of causality is central in nonlinear time series analysis and science in general. A popular approach to infer causality between two processes is to measure the information flow between them in terms of transfer entropy. Using…
This video shows three-dimensional contours at two different values of enstrophy for a turbulent boundary layer up to $Re_\theta \simeq 2500$. Its intention is to show how, what can be be considered the turbulent/nonturbulent interface for…
The objective of this study is to highlight the effect of porosity variation in a topology optimization process in the field of fluid dynamics. Usually a penalization term added to momentum equation provides to get material distribution.…
