Microaggregates are the fundamental building blocks of soils and thus important for its structure, properties and functions [Totsche et al]. Although there has been much research on the links, dynamics, stability, and structure of soil microaggregates, there is still a substantial lack of quantifying the relationships between the key factors of their dynamics. Those key factors are soil fauna,...
This talk will focus on the numerical aspects of reactive flows and pore-scale modeling, and how involving vortex-like methods can substantially improve computational efficiency, that is to say optimize the use of computing resources (computational time and memory storage). After briefly describing the numerical approach, a few numerical simulations of calcite dissolution will be...
We present a reactive fluid dynamics modelling approach coupling flow physics and geochemical calculations at pore scale resolution. A model workflow combining numerical solvers has been developed according to the operator splitting approach and the Lagrangian transport method. The FlowDict module of the GeoDict software package (Math2Market GmbH, Germany) iteratively computes the flow field...
Permeability of Luhui granite with 200mm in diameter and 400mm long was measured at triaxial stresses and elevated temperature using 600℃20MN servo-controlled triaxial rock mechanics testing machine. It is found that 300℃ is the threshold temperature (Tc) of permeability change with temperature in thermally cracked granite. The magnitude of permeability is 10-7D with a low increase below Tc...
