Flow and Transport in Fractured Porous Media

by P. Dietrich, R. Helmig, M. Sauter, H. Hötzl, J. Köngeter, G. Teutsch (Editors)

Flow and Transport in Fractured Porous Media addresses the characterization of flow and transport in porous fractured media from experimental and modeling perspectives.

The volume explores porous media problems, from the origin of the present natural porous structures to their characterization, and various flow and transport phenomena that exist within the porous media.

Examples are miscible displacements in porous media and fractured rock and the physical and chemical interactions within porous fractured aquifers.

The book is a comprehensive presentation of investigations performed and analyzed on different scales, supporting the understanding and application of experimental studies and numerical simulations.

Survey on porous fractured media research including laboratory and numerical experiments and its interpretations.

Flow and Transport in Fractured Porous Media addresses the characterization of flow and transport in porous fractured media from experimental and modeling perspectives.

It provides a comprehensive presentation of investigations performed and analyzed on different scales.

The movement of a fluid through porous media is described by the combination of Darcy’s law with the principle of conservation of mass in order to express the capillary force or fluid velocity as a function of various other parameters including the effective pore radius, liquid viscosity or permeability.
